That's our class motto!  No matter what you're working on, Just Do It!  If it seems hard, don't give up! Just Do It!  If someone needs help, help them! Just Do It! Give your best efforts!  Just Do It! :)

Our classroom theme is SOCCER!  In soccer each team is trying to make a goal.  In our classroom, each student is working toward meeting learning goals!  With the game, when you practice, you get better!  With learning, the same is true!  Practice reading!  Practice your addition and subtraction facts!  Make those goals...reach those goals!!
