It is hard to believe the school year is half over. It seems to get faster each year. I would like to include a quick recap of first semester classroom guidance lessons.
September:
Students in all grades received instructions on bullying including the definition of, prevention, and how to get help if you find yourself a victim of bullying.
November/December:
Responsibility was the focus for these months. Students learned to be responsible with their words, their time, in their friendships, and with their school work.
January:
Cooperation/Teamwork is the focus for January. Students have learned that working with others will be an important part of not only their school day, but nearly all future career paths they choose.
We are getting ready for the Great Kindness Challenge. We participated last year and it was one of the best weeks. I love being able to teach students that being kind matters. We had such great participation from the students last year I know this year will be even better. Last year boasted over 10,000 kind acts performed just in that week. As a result we became a "Kindness Certified School" and helped break a Guinness World Record.
