Lessons on Kindness

This month's lessons will carry through with November's lessons on jealousy & envy. The upper grades have been exploring the beliefs that cause jealousy & envy:

1. That something someone else has or does makes me less special
2. That something someone else has or gets to do takes away from me

Students have been learning that these beliefs are things we can DECIDE to change.

Now we are examining news and magazine articles to identify events that demonstrate adult behaviors for negative and positive examples of how to behave.

The lower grades are learning about ways to express anger that are not harmful to themselves or others through the Snowman Game.
