A school in Stockton, California started using the books for the 2007-2008 school year to teach goal setting to their students...
Hi Morty,
K through 3 grade has adopted Can Do Duck's slogan. We recite it every day in class. Every class has their own way of incorporating Can Do Duck into their classroom. One Kindergarten teacher has ducks on every table to remind students they can. I have a huge duck in front of the classroom as a reminder. My students are very excited to take tests now as I reward them with a duck for achieving an 80% or above on the test. They love collecting the ducks and it creates excitement in my class now instead of dread come test day. We love Can Do Duck. Thanks for checking in.
A Very Grateful Teacher,

Tomorrow is a big math test and my students are excited. Most of them are sure they are going to score high enough to get another duck. Just so you know, I also give a duck for birthdays and all the holidays. I don't want any student to not have a duck. They are very motivating and all of my students are trying really hard to show they "can".

Everything is going great! Our reading program is in full swing. I just finished reading THE CAN DO DUCK to our 3rd grade students... It is so encouraging to see them recite the “pledge” when they are attempting something new. Teachers are also incorporating the four step plan into their lessons. The discussion guide by Ductor Morty was a great asset. The “readers” appreciated the questions and used them within the classroom.

Orlando, Florida --- Dr. Phillips Elementary School is using the Can Do Duck books in all of its classes for grades K through 5 for the 2007-2008 school year to help teach positive attitudes!! They used the books for the 2006-2007 year for the first time and decided to continue the program again this year. This is a picture of the principal and vice principal with a banner they created. If you look carefully, you can see the Can Do capes on some of the ducks!
Dr. Phillips Elementary School is taking Can Do to new heights! They are using the Can Do Duck books as part of their year-long positive attitudes program, Are You Up For The Challenge? They give out rubber ducks, duck key chains, and other duck items to the children and to the teachers to keep up the Can Do spirit. A large Can Do Duck visits different classrooms with a journal to keep track of when a class does a project with a Can Do attitude! They are definitely proving, WE CAN DO IT!
To find out how every student in your classroom or school can have copies of Can Do Duck books, please contact Ducktor Morty about special school pricing.
