Education & Mental Health Week
This week is short BUT busy! It is
Education week and our theme is “We Are Teachers”. We had a great conversation
this morning about things we can do help take care of our mental health. Some
examples were going to be earlier, talking with friends and family, exercising,
taking time to relax and sharing our feelings. We will continue to talk and
learn about it through the week.
Hats on for Mental Health
Awareness
On Wednesday we are asking all students to wear a hat for Mental
Health Awareness. Please don’t make it a silly hat. Something simple would be
great. Thanks!
We are all TEACHERS Project
On Thursday the students are going
to be paired up with a classmate. It will be their job to “teach” their buddy
about something for 15 minutes. I would suggest each student bringing in
something small to help with their mini lesson. The topics are endless. They
could teach about anything they feel really confident in or are passionate
about. Perhaps your child knows a lot about baking or a sport or an animal. I
would suggest picking a topic tonight and having a small picture, book or prop
of some sort to help with the “teaching/talking”. Thanks for your help with
this!
Field Trips
We have had a few driver forms
returned for the May Field trips. I am still in need of drivers for all of the
trips. Please let me know if you are able to help. Thanks! Feel the Beat is
next week on the 14th! Please let me know if you can even drop off
and pick up! Thanks!
Family Assembly
The focus of our family assembly
this week is Habit #5 – Seek first to understand then be understood. We will be focusing
on what it means to be a good listener. The assembly will be hosted by the
grade 2’s but it is not something parents need to attend.
