Habit of the week/Classroom leading morning announcements:
 
  Thomason- Habit 3: Put first things first



If students don't have a Halloween costume, please send them to the office when it's a good time. We will help create or find something so every student can participate in the parade.

As classrooms are integrating classroom meetings and writing activities that include opportunities for social and emotional learning, we are hearing situations that are just heart breaking. This isn't just one or two students, but almost the whole classroom. School is truly one of the most safe and loving places for our students. Thank you for reaching out to students so they know they have people on their side.

The following two links are great resources that fit well with classroom meetings and writing prompts/discussions:

Control, Being Proactive, and Restorative Practices

Being Thankful


This is a great resource for increasing student engagement and voice in the classroom:

More Student Talk


A big part of our story at Harrison is providing learning, closing opportunity gaps, closing the digital divide, and ensuring our students have opportunities to be a kid. Many of our kids are living adult situations, and they need to experience laughter. The pictures this week are great examples of learning, smiling, friendship, spreading kindness, student leaders, and more. You can click on the pictures to see them larger, and these would be great to share with students:

Remember this thought as you check in with students this week. Sometimes you need to set aside the content and address the emotions. When student needs are met, the learning will take off. Thank you for finding even just a few minutes to talk with a student. Every staff member matters, especially to our students:
