#3GoodThings



As I have been reading more and more I have come to see a pattern of what is important in teaching and learning. A pattern I see is having a positive growth mindset and being grateful and happy about yourself and your life. Here is some information about what noticing 3 good things a day and reflecting can do. I will be doing a project called #3GoodThings with my reading classes as a way to promote social-emotional learning and reading/writing. Students will notice 3 positive things in their lives or the lives of others around them and write them in a digital journal (or they can choose to use a journal they have) and then on Friday, there will be a Reflection Friday assignment. This is a way to help encourage us to notice more and to find a way to be positive. 

This is a website called Action for Happiness that has other ideas as well. 

Enjoy...and let's be happy together!

Warmly,

Pam
