MoTo Monday, Week 34, EMPATHY, Summer STEAM Day

...where ALL students are UNIQUE and Wonderfully Made!

Welcome Morgan County FAMILIES to 
POSITIVE ACTIONS! 

The Morgan County Partnership is soooo pleased to provide our greater community with continued online Positive Actions programming with our regularly scheduled 
"Daily PAWsitive Actions Community Vlogcast"
for families to share Positive Actions together!  
Our Social and Emotional Wellness will be supported as we, especially now, continue each day with positive 
THOUGHTS, ACTIONS, and FEELINGS!  
SO, LET'S GET STARTED!!!!

More than ever these days, we can change the world with EMPATHY!  How PAWsome that our regularly scheduled Positive Word of the Week 34, for April 27-May1, 2020, is
EMPATHY!
By now, maybe you are also overwhelmed with all the scary news out there and it may seem hard to find Some Good News
and really feel empathy as we are all staying at home.  This week, let's try to understand that there are many in our community on the front lines from hospitals to grocery stores, and if we put ourself in their shoes during the pandemic, imagine how scared they are just doing their jobs every day.  Showing empathy for others is a Positive Action!  So remember this: When you wash your hands often....that's empathy too!  And, "staying home" is also hard, we know; but, it is a Positive Action that helps us show empathy for others so we all can be healthy!  Social Distancing can, and will, stop the virus.

Mrs. Hott and Mrs. Sheima are SUPER excited to share Positive Actions with Morgan County students because today, and each Monday, is when we "motor-up" YOUR school week and get ready for more PAWsome days of learning and growing... 
"MOTO Monday!"    
or, "Motovation Monday" where we will see a vlog to get our week "motored-up" with positive thoughts, actions, and feelings!  
Today is April 27, 2020!  

Get ready to be inspired with a special guest from the Morgan County Partnership, Summer Goller hosting 
"Summer STEAM......watch this! 





That was PAWsome!  Thanks Summer....remember, if YOU get a school lunch for the week, Summer has some supplies for YOU!

Social & Emotional Wellness! 

Maybe you've been hearing the word "social distancing" lately?  That means for our physical health, we need to be staying home for a while.  However, if we remember toTHINK positive, we CAN be social remotely with digital media, or #AloneTogether, right?  So, keep reading our Daily PAWsitive Actions Community Vlogcast and Mrs. Hott and Mrs. Sheima will be here with you!  


For mom & dad: "Social-Emotional WellnessEmotional wellnesssocial skills, and life skills are important tools for children to develop. They affect how children view themselves, interact with others, evaluate challenges, and explore choices. This includes handling stress, negative feelings, and difficult situations positively." 

 In order to help our emotions be healthy and well, we will be talking about a PAWsome word this week, empathy!

Our PAWsitive Action "word of the week" is: empathy
And in Spanish:  empatia
Try to say "empatia"! 
(TRY THIS in Spanish, click here: empatia, then click the speaker!  Watch here:  Say Empatia!) 

For Positive Actions, we are learning about wonderful words that build our Social and Emotional Wellness to help us all get along (at home, school, and in the community), raise our student assets, build confidence, and improve our academics! 

The word "empathy" means "the ability to understand and share the feelings of another. " 


For week's programming schedule, we will learn more about POSITIVE character values that help us all to follow the GOLDEN RULE!  On the vlogcast this week, we will see some new friends; 
MoTo Mon.**Summer STEAM for a pawsome chalk activity; 
Talkin' Tue.**Brain Talk with Becca and Mandi; 
Value Vlog Ved.**PAWsome Parents with Ms. Nikki, our

**NEW THIS WEEK**
Do you know a caregiver who may be struggling?  Please share....NEW! Starting April 30th, Thursdays at 1:00, Ms Nikki will host a Parent Playdate Zoom Room for caregivers to gather and well, just chat and relax.  We're all in this #AloneTogether!  Email nccowles1@yahoo.com for Zoom link:
