BOOK CLUB FOR 3RD & 4TH GRADERS

Join with other families in this innovative free program, 

Growing Gratitude & Generosity,

offered by Agawam Public Schools, Family Resource Center.

The Growing Gratitude and Generosity is a book club project designed to help parents encourage and support their children to understand, feel and express the positive values of gratitude and generosity in their daily lives. 

There are only 4 meetings - most activities can take place at home at any time that works for your family.

Families with children in 3rd & 4th grade in Agawam Public Schools are welcome!

Family Activities:

A Common Read We will provide an engaging, age-appropriate book for parents and kids to read and discuss together at home, and a booklet with a variety of books and activities to extend each family’s exploration of gratefulness and giving.

Parent Cafés At an orientation meeting and two virtual gatherings, parents will meet informally to learn from one another’s successes and challenges in helping their kids to become more grateful and generous. Fun children’s activities  will be provided. Families are invited to a final celebration at the end of the program.

A Family Community Service Project In groups or individually, families will design and participate in a family community service project of their choosing. Planning for the projects will be the focus of the second Parent Café.
