Dealing With Disappointment

3/4/2017

0 Comments

 
For the March 4th meeting, little sisters worked on building bridges out of paper, straws, and tape.  They then tested the strength of the bridge using pennies to see how strong their bridge was.  Some of the bridges held over 1,500 pennies!  They then split into 2 groups to help build their confidence. The 4th graders completed a worksheet in which they completed 20 prompts to get them thinking about things they were proud of or liked about themselves. Then they wrote anonymous complimentary letters to all of their fellow 4th graders so each of them could leave with a note that builds their confidence and puts a smile on their face! With acceptances for private schools coming out Friday, the 5th grade little sisters had a meaningful discussion about how to deal with rejection and disappointment.  They heard examples of how their big sisters deal with disappointment, and advice for moving on, no matter the outcome.
