Rainbow Fish and Qualities of Friendship!

10-12-2016

In Wellness class, we have been working with students on social emotional strategies.  One of the most important skills we are learning about is how to be a good friend and sometimes this can be tough.  Being a friend is a crucial life skill that they will carry all through school and into the real-world.  As a school, we read Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister.  Rainbow fish is about a beautiful fish that learns how to make friends by sharing his most prized possessions his scales. He learned that he would have more friends by sharing what he loved (his scales) than holding onto them.  Each child colored and decorated their fish and on the inside of the fish wrote a quality of friendship that was important to them.  Come check out their fish on the top floor of the Lower School!
