- December’s character traits are Kindness and Caring. We demonstrate this character trait by:
- showing understanding and treating others with compassion, generosity and a forgiving spirit
- being gentle, friendly, considerate and willing to help
- showing concern or sympathy for others and being sensitive to the needs of others
- talking positively about others
- considering the needs of others, not just your own
- Kindness and caring look like and sound like:
- doing something nice for somebody- a random act of kindness
- smiling at those you know and those you don’t know
- saying “good morning”
- reminding someone how special he or she is
- volunteering time to help others in need or donating to a charity
- asking “how can i help?” or “how are you?”
- the students going with Mr. Webb to 905Raptors are supposed to check in with their classroom teachers and stay there until after the announcements. Then they are to meet with Mr. Webb in the small lunchroom.
