Today is our last blog post of the 2019\/2020 school year.

Your enthusiasm to learn new things and willingness to share about yourselves helped to create a wonderful community of learners in our classroom. I will miss you all very much! I hope you have a wonderful summer with your families and get to do some activities that you enjoy. Be Kind, Be Calm and Be Safe!

If there is a glass with water to the halfway point, some people see that glass as half empty and wish for more (negative mindset), other people see it as half full and are grateful for what water they have (positive mindset). How you look at the glass is a choice and determines what feelings you carry inside of you. Instead of wishing for what you don\u2019t have (or don\u2019t have yet), we should make the most of what we do have. It is important to acknowledge what is making us sad\/frustrated\/worried\/angry but then we need to practice finding the happy to feel more positive inside.<\/li>\n<li>Listen to the story<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/U1bDLm1NhbI\">\u00a0Happy Right Now by Julie Berry<\/a><\/li>\n<li>The girl in the story was \u201cpracticing happy\u201d , making a choice to be happy for things she had, rather than wishing things were different.
