Kindness and Gratitude

East Jay Elementary--During the month of December, student's met with Mrs. Addington and discussed gratitude and kindness. Students wrote thank you notes to any person they wanted to show their gratitude, both here at school or home. Following a "gratitude calendar", students were able to see how they were doing with these worthwhile activities.

They also learned about Random Acts of Kindness and practiced showing kindness to their fellow students, teachers, staff, and their families at home. They made Christmas lightbulbs for their lockers describing ways to be kind, made notes with words of encouragement to other students and staff, and made and sent Christmas greetings to residents of Persimmon Ridge, Crown Pointe, and our County Home.
