Week Three - Family

This week is all about connection between community and family. A large winter storm brought fresh snow to the area, blanketing the playground and the surrounding fields. We practiced kindness this week, and learned about what makes our heart full, including the people we love and nature all around us. Students received flashlights as their incentive, and have fun completing the Morse Code activity in their playbooks. During Forest Friday, reading buddy groups across the school got together to complete the partner relay. Following the theme of WinterKids Heart - we filled our community with images of heart, both inside the building and outside. We also completed the snack pal activity, and had students submit their kindness hearts to a school wide kindness jar. 

On Friday afternoon, we gathered as a school community and had some fun together after school. Families joined us in snow shoeing, sledding, snow art, and snow fort building. Even with the chilly temperatures this week, staff and families enjoyed some outside time together. This week was really all about what it means to be a community.
