Douglas will be participating in the Great Kindness Challenge next week (Jan. 27-Jan. 31). This is a movement that many other schools in the nation are participating in. In this challenge, students are encouraged to do as many kind acts as possible during the week. If a student wishes to participate, they can pick up a challenge check off list outside of my door next week. There are 2 check lists, (one for K/1st and another for 2-5). If you would like to participate as a class, please let me know and I'll print out a classroom set for you. At the end of the week, a participating student can turn in their challenge checklist in to me (or you if you want) for a dragon dollar.
In addition to the challenge, we'll have a couple other activities going on during recess or before school. We'll also be dedicating a "buddy bench" to the playground next week sometime. More on that later. On Friday, 1/31 we will be having a spirit day - Hats On to Kindness. Students and staff can wear any kind of hat they want to school that day.
Thanks!
Kelli Williams
