Let’s keep Rachel’s Challenge alive. Make sure you are journaling regularly, accepting others and doing kind acts. Make sure you recognize those students that do kind acts by completing a chain link for them.
Our value word for the week is: Cooperation - a situation in which people work together to do something or the actions of someone who is being helpful by doing what is wanted or asked for
Jonathan Haidt once said, “The most powerful force ever known on this planet is human cooperation - a force for construction and destruction.”
Woodlands students respect the opinion of others whether they agree with the other person or not. During a discussion, you should respect the other students’ comments, opinions, and ideas. Listen to their thoughts attentively and do not interrupt until they have finished their entire thought. Then when possible you can make statements like, “I agree with you, and I also feel that…” or “You made a valid point but I disagree with you because...” or “I feel you made an excellent observation and it made me realize…” At no time do Woodland Students put down or make fun of another student for their opinion, thought or idea that they share.
The lost and found already has several items in it. It is only going to grow as winter approaches. If you are missing items please stop by the lost and found and claim the items that are yours.
Please remember we all have a responsibility with regards to making sure our school remains safe. When going outside or coming inside please make sure the door closes behind you. Please stop propping doors open and not closing them behind you. If you see a door propped open please close it or report it. If you see someone waiting outside to enter the building Do Not let them in. Students should never open a door for anyone.
November is the month of Thankfulness. This month we will be giving everyone something to think about and be thankful for things that are usually just taken for granted. Today, spend a little time thinking about - What Book or book character are you thankful for?
