Wellness Week is coming to a close! Tomorrow is Spirit Day - so wear school colors to show you are proud of yourself and your school. You can find the October 2009 Counselor Newsletter by clicking this link (it will be listed in the documents).
I hope you enjoy the pencil and biodot stress cards that are coming home today in Mail from the Trail! They seem to be a big hit with kids and adults because we can SEE how we are feeling. So often we say/think we are fine when we really aren't. Focusing on our overall wellness is so important - when that is in place, we have the tools we need to say no to hurtful things such as drugs, alcohol and abusive relationships. Tomorrow, the kids will be decorating their doors or classrooms with Wellness Themes:
Kindergarten - Red Hearts for Physical Wellness: "What is something you do to be healthy?"
1st & 2nd Grade - Green Trees for Social Wellness: "What has someone done to help you? Or what have you done to help another person?"
3rd Grade - Yellow Stars for Emotional Wellness: "What is something you have done that you felt proud about?"
4th Grade - Sky Blue Moons for Spiritual Wellness/Future Dreams: "What is your dream job after you finish high school and college?"
5th Grade - Blue Graduation Hats for Intellectual/Mental Wellness: "What have you done to show people you are smart/good problem solver?"
Happy Wellness Week!
