November

Let’s Be Thankful

For the month of November, we would like to remind one another that there are many reasons to be thankful. With this month’s Thoughtful Thursday happening just one week before Thanksgiving, we wanted to encourage students to think of reasons to be thankful and how to show Gratitude.  Gratitude is a way for people to appreciate what they have instead of always reaching for something new in the hopes it will make them happier, or thinking they can't feel satisfied until every physical and material need is met. Gratitude helps people refocus on what they have instead of what they lack. 

Our project this month will be to decorate a placemat to be used on Thanksgiving by our neighbors at a variety of Senior Centers and Nursing Homes. First through fifth grade students will be encouraged to share ways to be thankful this year.   Check out some of our students work below!!
