Day 48 (Day 3 Week 10) Learning from home: We have each other

At Trinity, we celebrate the present as we prepare for the future.

Let’s hear Sixth Graders’ Wisdom as they offer advice to younger students. I know that I need and will use all of this advice.

Cherish every day. Stay cool.
Enjoy field trips and outdoor ed.
Take a risk. Even if it doesn’t work out, you’ll learn from your mistakes.
Have a positive mindset. Never give up.
Don’t put others down; instead, bring them up.
Things might be hard right now, but everything will be okay.
Remember to do your work when you find out about it, and don’t procrastinate. Do your work at a table and not your bed.
Try your best on all the work.
Wear your seatbelt and stay in school.
Don’t give up just because it seems hard.
Dreams remain dreams until action is taken.
Just remember that there is always a place where you will feel at home; you just have to find it.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions, and bathe every day.
Always come prepared to class. Go back and double-check your work.
Be positive. Life will throw you curve balls; be positive and kind.
Make sure to get enough sleep.
Keep working on your goals no matter what.
Always try new things. Be willing to work with other people.
Don’t be nervous. Be yourself.
If you have questions before the end of the day, talk to your teachers before you leave.
Don’t stay on electronics too long. Exercise. Take up new hobbies.

Our First Graders send love and advice to our graduating 6th Graders:

And, let’s also hear from our teachers, friends, and colleagues.

Again, from Andra Day’s Rise Up:

All we need, All we need is hope
And for that we have each other…

We have each other. We have hope.

Quoting Thomas Benefield again:

…it has been hard. Hard, but not impossible. Hard, but not without hope and joy and expectation. If we have to do this again, we can.

… we can because this is what we do; we teach our students.
