Throughout March, we were learning all about optimism as our character trait of the month. We have read books, poems and watched videos all about this concept to help us understand what this big idea means.
We have read the book:
We have created our own examples of bad news and turned it into good news this past week to really focus on finding the good when sometimes the bad is really hard to get over...
Got a sliver - might get a sucker from the doctor
Spilled your drink - just get a refill
Tornado blows down your house - get a brand new home the way you want it
Your sibling pushed you & you hurt your knee - you get a bandaid and get cuddles from mom/dad
Scary dream - its just a dream and not real or you can go to your mom & dad's bed
Ripped your pants - can get new pants or someone can sew them as good as new or you could cut them and turn them into shorts
Afraid of an animal - some creatures eat other creatures that might annoy us, some don't live near us
Scared of the dark - you can always sleep with a night light on, its dark when you close your eyes
We also found a new character in a story book that really practices finding the good in situations.
He also was in this story as well about his cool sunglasses:
And some great songs and videos we watched about optimism are:
