The Great Kindness Challenge

By Student Blogger Nicole

Have you ever heard of “The Great Kindness Challenge?”  If you haven’t let me tell you a little bit about it. The Great Kindness Challenge is a global challenge were there is a list of 50 acts of kindness. This year Proctor School decided to participate. We also had a kindness themed spirit week. On Monday we had crazy hair, on Tuesday we wore sports clothing, on Wednesday we wore neon colors, on Thursday we wore pjs, and on Friday we wore tie dye that we made in school.

And, Team Gibbas won the Kindness Spirit Cup for having the most students participate in spirit week in fourth grade!    

Kindness Counts

As we begin our week long celebration of kindness, I thought it was appropriate to look back at how we began our school year celebrating kindness with Trashcan Lid Productions' Sticks and Stones program.  Students embraced kindness through discussion, music, and multimedia.   
Thank you Trashcan Lid Productions for bringing the Sticks and Stones program to Proctor School and reminding us all how important it is to be kind.

Tie Dye

Tie-Dye

By Student Blogger Sam

¨Hey Braden can you pass me a blue it looks awesome!¨ I exclaimed.

Earlier today we did tie-dye. We did tie-dye for two reasons. The first reason is we will wear our t-shirts, that were really fun to make, when it is Kindness Week. The other reason is that we will wear our t-shirts in our chorus concert where we will sing songs and be like viewers of Woodstock in 1969.

We did tie-dye with our CLIC teacher Ms. Cahill. We had four colors. They were a yellowish-orange, red, blue, and purple. You could decide how much or how little of a color you wanted. It was very fun and I hope that we do it again.
