For my classroom lessons this week, the students and I discussed the meaning of gratitude and reasons to be thankful. Then we followed up with a discussion on things we should say more often.
I showed them this video first (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yA5Qpt1JRE4) then this one (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5yCOSHeYn4). If you've never heard of Kid President, you have to check out these two videos. I love that the videos are so simple, yet full of meaning. Very funny and cute too! For the next two weeks, think about the people you are thankful for and about the things you should say more often to them or to anyone! Have a safe and wonderful holiday!! See you in 2016 :)

To this day, I still have friends asking me the role of a professional school counselor. That got me thinking... There must be parents, kids, community members, and even school staff who must be wondering the same thing!
I found this nifty document that clearly outlines most of of what I do (and not do). Kudos to Ms. Marston for creating and sharing this document! Winter break is approaching, which means festivities are right around the corner like our Spirit Week!! Get your wardrobe ready for next week!

We get to go home early! :) LCC has AMAZING parents and I just want to give a shout out to them, especially the ones that just completed the Positive Parenting and Family Leadership Workshop !! The workshop covered various topics over the course of 6 weeks and was facilitated by our Targeted Case Manager, Dolores.
Future workshops will be announced on our Latest News page :) |
