Trying to act normal on a day like today after the weekend's events is not easy. Returning to school to teach my beautiful students. Not as easy as it should be. Today we, as a class, focused more and more on positive words. Our greeting was giving compliments, we made Christmas cards for a friend who has cancer, and we chatted lots about how we care for one another without discussing the events of the weekend. Words are a powerful thing and I want all my "kids" to know I care deeply about them and would do anything for them.
I saw this picture this weekend and decided to send a copy home with each student reminding them of the power of words. I hope the students hang it somewhere they can see it and use the information.
"You Matter" is what I want every student to remember!
