Next week, September 18th through the 22nd, Peterson will celebrate Start with Hello. This week was developed to increase connectedness among K-12 students. Multiple schools across KIBSD are participating.
This week, try talking to your child about some of these topics.
How does it feel performing a random act of kindness, both as the giver and the receiver?
Have you ever been a new student at your school, how did that feel? What is helpful when you are new? What is hurtful?
Share a compliment about someone in your class (set expectations, such as you can only name someone who hasn’t been complimented recently).
What is something you appreciate about your classmates or schoolmates?
What is something that you are grateful for?
Also, don’t forget to dress up each day next week.
