This week, our students explored the power of words with the book "Martin’s Big Words" by Doreen Rappaport. They brainstormed "Power Words," discussed what it means to be a "Peaceful Warrior," and created illustrated posters showcasing inspiring words. These posters will soon decorate our hallways as a reminder of how words can shape a better world.

To bring their intentions to life, they completed adorable winter bear crafts, wrote their focus word, and shared thoughtful descriptions of why they chose it.
