This year, our school made a major, community-wide push to prioritize and elevate our collective wellness. We knew that to build a healthier, happier environment, we needed to start at the heart of our school: our students. By researching different areas of well-being and listening closely to our kids' unique perspectives, we wanted to discover what wellness truly means to them.
Class 310 launched an exciting new writing unit all about the different types of wellness! Students watched videos together and read engaging passages to learn about the many ways people take care of their physical, emotional, and social well-being. Through discussion and exploration, the class began thinking about how they practice wellness in their own lives as they prepare to write about it.

Students worked together to create a shared list of wellness-themed writing prompts that encourage reflection, self-awareness, and positive habits. These prompts are used for regular free writing in their notebooks, giving students a consistent opportunity to pause, think about their well-being, and express their thoughts in a personal and creative way.

Students explored different branches of wellness through research and then selected one area to focus on more deeply. Using their learning, they created original Pixton comic strips that creatively illustrated key ideas, habits, and scenarios related to their chosen branch of wellness. This project allowed students to combine research, critical thinking, and storytelling while expressing their understanding in a visual and engaging format.
