What an amazing week...

I had some requests today to put up a post so that they could comment on what they learned today, or just to comment on today.

We are so proud of how these kids are TEAM PLAYERS, how they VALUE one another, and how they understand that not everyone has the same perspective on things, so it is important to think outside of ourselves and "clue into" others around us.

This weeks' activities have all been geared around getting to know one another and learning to appreciate how we are alike and different. One of the best quotes of the week, "We learned that no matter what your age or where you are from, even though they are different, there are advantages for everyone to be who and where they are." That's from a Second and Fourth Grader after they were talking together about an activity this week. LOVE IT!
