We started off the day with writing about what an everyday superhero is to us. We talked about how students within our classroom have been superheroes when we have needed it. The kids made a page that was placed into a booklet and given to Livi as a good luck token for her surgery tomorrow. It was so special hearing how each kid views everyday superheroes.
Later we watched an inspirational clip about a boy who was born with challenges, but does not view it as a negative. The kids were amazed with this 9 year old boy and it brought up many great discussions about how we can find positive things even when life seems so hard. We then listened to the song Brave, by Sarah Bareilles, and the kids shared "how big there brave is." Stories of all kinds were shared that really took my breath away. We really do have some of the bravest kids I know. Finally, we took some time to select superhero traits for each other and created a customized bracelet to wear using color coded beads. Ask your child if they can recall what the colors on their bracelet stand for! I want to thank you for sharing your BRAVE superhero children with me everyday. Each one of them is remarkable and I could not be a prouder teacher. What a special day to remember!
