{Elected}

K wanted to run for class treasurer of the 5th Grade. He figured that not many people would run for that job so he could have a better chance of winning if he ran for treasurer.

So he ran put up his poster and gave a 3 minute speech.

That afternoon he came walking into my classroom and didn't say anything about it. I gave him a few minutes to see if he would say anything before asking. I figured he must have not won if he wassn't going to say anything. But I asked anyways...and he said "oh yeah....I won." and started talking about something else. He isn't a bragger and doesn't like to make others feel bad about losing.

We are proud of him for trying something new and still being calm enough to remember others feelings when he won.
