February is Random Acts of Kindness month at Floral Street School! Every student at school enjoyed listening to the story Somebody Loves You, Mr. Hatch earlier this month. After we read the story together we brainstormed a list of acts of kindness that we could do both at home and at school. Each student at Floral chose one act of kindness that they wanted to do and wrote it on a bear that they brought home to decorate. If you visit Floral this month you will see those bears hanging in the hallways. Take a minute to stop and read them so you can see what we plan to do to make our community a better place this month! Last week at our school meeting first and second graders got the chance to share their thoughts on the story we read and even share some ideas for random acts of kindness with one another. We are keeping our eyes open this month so that we can "catch" one another committing acts of kindness! If you happen to "catch" a student being kind at Floral this month, be sure to let me know so we can recognize that student for a job well done!
We will be celebrating Valentine's Day this Thursday afternoon! Students will be making a Valentine's Day craft, sharing cards with one another, and will enjoy a healthy snack. If your student is interested in bringing in Valentine's Day cards for the class on Thursday, please look for the list of names in this Monday's communication folder. Bringing in cards is an option. Students do not have to bring in Valentine's Day cards, but if your child chooses to do so, please be sure to bring in enough for everyone in the class. Please do not send in any candy with your child's valentines so that we can comply with the district wellness policy.
Have a great week!
