My Project

Our grade level is dedicated to addressing bullying in elementary schools by focusing on Social Emotional Standards and promoting kindness. Recognizing that students may face challenges in using kind words towards their peers, we have chosen a Speak Out theme centered around the book "The BFG." This project aims to fund book purchases for each student, allowing them to take the message of the book home at the end of the unit. Through exploring the overall themes of never giving up, speaking out against bullying, and practicing kindness, students will not only gain valuable insights but also actively apply these lessons in their daily lives. To culminate the unit, we will organize a 3rd-grade Speak-out celebration where students can share what they've learned and how they are making a positive impact by standing up against bullying.
