Feelings


How are you feeling today? 

That is a typical question we ask ourselves and each other throughout our school day. We may be deep into reading, writing, math, and science, but each day, we find time to discuss our personal feelings and how what we do and say is helpful to our community of peers.    We strive each day to help each other take care of oneself, others, and the community.  We are developing mindful habits to use in our interactions with friends.  INQUIRE what your child does when they are feeling annoyed.  sad? frustrated? ENgage your child at home with conversations about feelings and what they do when in a variety of situations.  Last week, we made picture cards to illustrate many of our day to day feelings - and will use these cards in future lessons to help us understand our zones of regulation.
