Lincoln School News for Nov. 30-Dec. 4, 2020

The launch of the Positivity Project (P2) was great! We will introduce a new character trait each Monday so, let's make every Monday a P2 T-shirt day. You can help by encouraging your child to wear their T-Shirt every Monday.  

A huge "Thank you to our PTO for the T-Shirts!"

For those of you in the Virtual Program, I will be communicating with the SJVS teachers and if they are planning to use the program too, we will get to work on t-shirts.  Stay tuned...Last week, we focused on Gratitude. Did you know that gratitude is the single best predictor of individual well-being? It is correlated with increased energy, empathy, happiness and optimism.

This week, we will focus on "Kindness." 

Kind people think about the needs and feelings of other people, and then act to help those people. Kind people are selfless. That is why a true act of kindness is distinct from helping another person in order to simply gain something for yourself. An individual with the strength of kindness helps others because it’s the right thing to do, not because they expect any reciprocal treatment or gain in reputation.
