What a great start to a great school year! I have had the opportunity to visit almost all of the classrooms during the last two weeks and I have enjoyed getting to know everyone! I will meet the rest of the classes next week after the Labor Day break.
During our counselor lesson, I gave each student a self-referral form. Students are asked to complete these and put them in my bowl when they'd like to visit me. I always look forward to talking to students. I've also given each student a folder that they will use to keep track of all of their 'counselor work' during the school year. I encourage then to share this information with parents.
Finally, I shared my 'Random Acts of Kindness' jar. If students are observed being unfriendly to an adult or classmate, I will ask them to randomly select something kind to do. Students seemed skeptical about this idea, but I assured them that it will help them act more respectfully towards others. More details to follow.....
I hope everyone has a great end to the first FULL week of school. Remember...Gracemor Crusaders are RESPECTFUL, RESPONSIBLE, AND READY TO LEARN!
Your Friend,
Mrs. Muller
