The character education theme of the month for May is “Compassion”. We have defined compassion as “Showing concern or empathy for others”. This month students will engage in lessons focused on working on understanding others’ feelings, and showing empathy and kindness to them. Showing compassion can be easy to do with people with whom we are close to, but students will learn the importance of showing compassion to all people they may encounter in their lives. Students will learn that choosing to show others compassion will bring more peace, happiness, and overall feelings of well being into their own lives as well as the lives of others. Through morning meetings, focused read-alouds, and social emotional learning blocks in their classrooms, students will learn about the importance of compassion. Students will work on recognizing others feelings, and practice acts of kindness, empathy, and compassion. We welcome families to engage in conversations with their children to strengthen their understanding of the importance compassion plays in their everyday lives.

I hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend and had time to enjoy the beautiful weather!

We know that summer is around the corner, but learning is continuing in our classrooms. Scholars are engaging in task based learning twice a week. Please continue to ask them about these activities giving them an opportunity to solidify their learning further.

Have a good week!
