Good Morning,
I hope you all had a nice weekend. Mine was wrapped in a variety of basketball games and involved watching a few football games (Go Steelers!). Today we started the 2nd part of our focus on people making a difference. Before we dive into the civil rights movement, I want to focus on identifying commonalities -- what is it that makes all crayons a crayon, all dogs a dog and all humans a human. What might be different between different crayons, or different dogs, or different humans? Today's focus started with similarities and differences of crayons. We ran out of time and will continue this conversation tomorrow. The big idea is that the students will gain an understanding that discrimination is based on judging external features, not what it is that makes us all humans.
Notes:
*Ski and ride program this week.
*Please send in boots and shoes/sneakers for your child everyday.
Peace,
Tommy
