Pink Shirt Day

Today was Pink Shirt Day.  The focus in our classroom was kindness.  We started the day with gym.  I randomly pulled names out of a basket.  Partners then went into the equipment room to choose  equipment for a game.  All the children happily went with their partners and had a lot of fun!
After recess we made and ate the friendship fruit salad.  I read a story called So Close and we discussed the big idea ( one word, 'hello', can make a big difference).   After lunch we all went to the gym for an assembly.  Some of the older students read a story and presented a play.
