Being kind is very simple. Most of the time it will take less than a second. You could say hi or good morning to someone, or you could simply compliment someone on how they look. You could even just smile. The word kindness means the quality of being friendly, generous, and a considerate person. 

• Friendly=kind and pleasant 
• Generous= is to give up something of yours
• Considerate=careful not to cause inconvenience or hurt to others

If you just follow those 3 actions you will be on your way to being the kindest person yet to be know-en  of yet in the whole wide world.

What an you do to be kind?

Yesterday our special guest Leroy helped us talk about bullying and micro aggressions.  There was a lot of teaching and told us a few websites to visit.  The first one is www.lusocentre.org and the second one is www.1000acts.ca.  All of us are God’s creation and we should not be treated badly.  However we look like or however we act like is our personality and we should not be called names.

Here are a few questions to answer.

Have you ever bullied someone?

Did you apologize to them?

Were you ever bullied?

Has God help you solve the problem?

 Has a friend help you solve the problem?

Did the bully stop bullying you?

We have been experiencing warmer than normal temperatures for this time of year and we decided to head outside and enjoy the company of the birds and sunshine and read!

I brought my chair outside and brought the book called “The birds in my life.”  It is about a lady who owns about 25 birds and tells a biography about all of them.

Have you ever read outside before?

What’s the best think about reading outside?

Here are some photos of us enjoying reading outdoors…

Have you ever carved a pumpkin turning it into a jack o lantern?  Our class has carved a pumpkin in groups and my group carved a pumpkin called Four Face.  We decided to vote who may win the pumpkin contest that our school was doing to find the best pumpkin and then Skeleton won so we entered him in.  The next day they said that Skeleton had won second place and our whole class cheered with excitement.

Here are some things to think about.

HOW CAN YOU WORK COOPERATIVELY?

HOW DO YOU DECIDE ON WHO WILL DO WHICH PARTS OF THE PUMPKIN?

IS IT YOUR BEST WORK?

Halloween is celebrated on Oct 31. The word Halloween is a shortening of All Hallows’ Evening also known as Hallow e’en or All Hallows’ Eve.

Part of the history of Halloween is Halloween costumes. The practice of dressing up in costumes and going door to door for treats on holidays goes back to the Middle Ages, and includes Christmas. Trick-or-treating resembles the late medieval practice of “souling,” when poor people would go door to door on Hallowmas (November 1), receiving food in return for prayers for the dead on All Souls Day (November 2). It originated in Ireland and Britain, although similar practices for the souls of the dead were found as far south as Italy. Shakespeare mentions the practice in his comedy The Two Gentlemen of Verona (1593), when Speed accuses his master of “puling [whimpering, whining], like a beggar at Hallow mas.”

HAPPY HALLOWEEN
