Happy Pink Shirt Day!
We had a pretty good day today with some great conversations about kindness, bullying, and being a good friend. We talked about easy ways to show kindness (listening, smiling, saying hello, etc.), and larger acts of kindness, like standing up for someone who is getting picked on, or going out of your way to make a new friend.
The students designed their own Pink Shirt Day shirts, featuring kind words and examples of ways to help others.
This activity took up a lot of our time because the discussions were so meaningful.
We finished chapter 3 of The Secrets of Droon, and played the math game "Classroom of Doom".
We had a sharing circle (finally they're allowed again!!) and the students talked about times that someone had shown kindness to them during the day. It dawned on me yesterday that "Guest Reader" will finally be permitted once again too, and I can't wait to get that started up again. Stay tuned for more information about that in the near future.
Tomorrow is Beach Day! It is also pretty cold, as is usually the case for Beach Days at LBS, so please help your child choose something summery to wear tomorrow that will still keep them warm outside. Think turtle-neck Hawaiian shirt.
Have a nice night,
Zac
