This week we are continuing with talking about our character word...RESPECT!

With the Kindergarten we are watching a part of a cartoon from "The Book of Virtues: Respect" and talking about the stories that we watched. As a group, we are working together to identify the characters that showed RESPECT and what actions they did to show RESPECT. Below you can find a link to the entire episode:

In first grade we are hearing the story of Pedro, and how he gets "put-down" throughout his day. He doesn't hear very many positive things, and it breaks his heart. As a group we are identifying the "put-downs" and then replacing those "put-downs" with positive things we could say to Pedro that would build him up. We are also practicing giving compliments to other people, and discussing how hearing positive words makes us feel. The first grade has done an excellent job of picking out positive traits and giving words of encouragement to one another!
