September 2020 Getting Along

Hey PRES friends!

This week, we are reading Kindness is Cooler, Mrs. Ruler!  by Margery Cuyler.  This is similar to last week's story.   Here is the story online:

In this story, Mrs. Ruler's learners are not always kind.  They are jumpy and grumpy!  They are being mean and bothering each other.  So, Mrs. Ruler gives them an assignment to show acts of kindness to their family.  Then she has them show acts of kindness at school and in their community. The learners soon end up with 100 acts of kindness!  Once you start showing kindness, it easily spreads! Being kind is easier than you think!!!

What is kindness? 

What are some example of things you do that are kind?

Give some examples of being kind to your family members, your friends, and others:  taking out the trash, cleaning your room, putting books/toys on the shelf, feeding your pet, saying something nice to someone, donating books/clothes, toys/etc.

I challenge you to show kindness to your family, your friends and others.

I hope you enjoyed this story and lesson!  Be Kind!!!

Best, 

Mrs. Daniel, PRES Counselor
