Share Your Wheels: Carpool 2 School Day

Rainy weather kept you off your bike? Consider sharing a ride to and from school. Carpooling is a great way to meet new friends and have fun on the way to school. It also helps reduce the amount of traffic around school making it easier for parents to come and go. Give it a try on Carpool 2 School Day, February 5th, 2019.

In December and January, ABC Readers read
Mr Peabody’s Apples,
by Madonna, in grades 1-2. ABC Readers in grades 3-5 read
Trouble Talk
, by Trudy Ludwig
.
These books use age-appropriate examples how spreading rumors and gossip cause hurt and harm friendships.
|
|
At Daves Ave, students are learning ways to stop “Trouble Talk” and engage in “Healthy Talk.” Trouble talk is gossiping, spreading rumors, lying, or saying hurtful things. Healthy talk uses words in a helpful, constructive manner to build relationships. Although apologizing cannot completely erase the hurt, students are also learning the steps to make a sincere apology and mend relationships.
|
|
Please continue to speak with your children about the significance of their words and actions. Before we speak, we should stop and think!
