HAL had a fun time today exploring aesthetic awareness, imagination, perception, appreciation, knowledge, artistic skills, and fostering creativity. We definitely have some amazing artists around us.
Simmons Says… Happy last GUIDANCE day before break. Once again, we kept the tradition of our “The Grinch Who Stole Christmas” read-aloud. It’s our Washington Guidance tradition and I LOVE seeing the new things the students notice and think about each year they grow.
A few student comments:
“Christmas doesn’t come from a store.”
“Maybe we can grow out hearts by showing kindness?”
“We could grow our hearts by doing something for someone who needs our help.”
“You can’t buy Christmas.”
“I’m thankful for my family and roof on my head.” 😁
SIMMONS FAMILY CHALLENGE:
Use the following two questions for your evening discussion.
1) Would our family pass the “Grinch Test”?? If we woke up with all our gifts gone Christmas morning, could we be merry with just our family?
2) How can we “grow our hearts”? Possibly by showing kindness, giving to others, etc.
Reminder: kids receive a piece of candy if they come tell me tomorrow what their family decided/discussed!!

All About Boundaries!!
Hello, Wildcat families!
Today in Mrs. Simmons’ Guidance class, we talked about all types of boundaries and how boundaries help to keep us safe.
One boundary we have at school is the fence around the playground. That boundary keeps us on the playground, away from fast cars and strangers. Knowing and staying inside that boundary line keeps us safe!
We talked about physical, emotional, online, and body boundaries that help keep us safe. My challenge to them was to go home and talk with their trusted adults about family rules (boundaries) that keep them safe AND what to do if someone tries to get us to go “out of bounds.”
Please talk with your kiddos so they know your family rules and how to keep safe. We had a BUNCH of great answers about family rules and who they ask for help. Keep those awesome conversations happening at home! You’re all doing a great job raising incredible young humans.
The Bulldog shirt order deadline has been extended. Order by Monday, December 5th and receive them in time for Christmas. https://stores.inksoft.com/north_platte_bulldogs/shop/home
