These last two weeks before the winter break and during the holiday season can be tough! The students are over-excited and we are over-tired with lists to check off and gifts to purchase. Luckily, we have many resources to engage our students through these weeks.
Young children may enjoy this storytelling of The Mitten, by Jan Brett. (includes discussion questions) With the older students, this video about bullying will reinforce choosing kindness.
