life lessons



What was my favorite thing about voting last week at Emily Dickinson, P.S. 75?

It wasn't the bake sale, which was way too healthy for me this year.

It was the Life Lessons board in the hallway!




Kindergarten students narrated a small tale of a learning related fear or challenge and how they overcame it, perhaps by helping others, perhaps by teaming up with friends or family to solve a problem, or maybe just by mastering a new task on their own.



In each example,  their confidence level shifted and their mood changed from sad to happy!


Slow and steady wins the race, the tortoise always says.....
