Our Rock Star today was Ethan. He shared that he plays baseball in the community.

Ethan brought in a photo of himself all dressed up in his baseball uniform. He played on the Pirates team. He wears white pants and a baseball hat. When he bats he wears a special helmet. Ethan loves catching and throwing. His favourite part of baseball is hitting the ball. Whoa, very cool, Rock Star Ethan. GO PIRATES.

Students enjoyed their learning tables.

We shared time that we have shown kindness:

• I hug someone if they are sad (Ethan)
• I help my sister when she was sad because she got hurt (Kayley)
• When my brother got hurst I helped him and I made him feel better (Griffin)

Students had the opportunity to draw and write about a time they have shown kindness. Students were encouraged to first draw a detailed picture and then add labels, words or sentences to describe their picture. Wow, kindergarten-there was some incredible work out there today.
