Dr. Bena Kallick, one of the authors of "Habits of Mind: A Developmental Series" presented a school plaque to Principal Nadine McDermott.
“Todd Elementary School joins an expanding international league of educational institutions dedicated to encouraging greater thoughtfulness by embracing habits of mind in an effort to better serve their students and make the world a more thoughtful place,” Kallick said.
Students from each grade level created a presentation related to the Habits of Mind they have learned this year.
Kindergarteners played a trivia game. First-graders performed a skit. Second-graders shared journal entries. Third-graders led a sing-along. Fourth-grader shared a poem. Fifth-graders gave reasons to use "Habits of Mind."
