21 Days of Gratitude

Over the past month, Charlton students have been expressing gratitude for what they have in their lives, including family, friends and other things they are grateful to have, or to have experienced.

Here is the Gr. 3's story:

Ms. Lusch's Grade 3 Class:
For the month of February, Gr. 3 students participated in 21 days of Gratitude to encourage students to think about what they are grateful for every day. The Grade 3 students decided to each write a “Gratitude Square” every day for the 21 days on a giant roll of mural paper. The class was really excited to see how long the roll would be by the 21st day!

At the end of the month we had a 21-student-long roll of things each child was grateful for! Although it started getting difficult to think about different things (because they weren't allowed to repeat anything!), the students began to think of topics that were more meaningful to people beyond only themselves. Overall, they did a fantastic job and worked hard to complete each of their squares every single day until the end. Great work Grade 3s!  ~Ms. Lusch
