In November, we will be talking about the importance of service. Anne Frank said, “No one has ever become poor by giving.” And from Helen Keller: “Believe, when you are most unhappy, that there is something for you to do in the world. So long as you can sweeten another’s pain, life is not in vain.”
Perhaps you may want to ask your student, “Who do you know who is good at serving others and how do they do so?”
This month, Mrs. Ross will read “Just Help” by Sonia Sotomayor to grades K-1, “Miss Rumphius” by Barbara Cooney to grades 2-3, and “14 Cows for America” by Carmen Agra Deedy and Wilson Kimeli Naiyomah to grades 4-5.
