Breast Cancer Awareness Day

Thank you for sending in contributions for our Breast Cancer Awareness Day. The students and I had a good discussion (yesterday) about this serious disease and ways we can help. I explained terms like "awareness" and a few children shared stories of women they know who were battling this disease and had lost their hair. 

I'm very impressed with how maturely the class handled such a sensitive topic and hope that we in 3LN will always be mindful that we can make a small difference. At the very least, our class is more aware of this disease and now know a few ways to show compassion and empathy. 

This is a great video to view with your child and discuss. If you want to make a bracelet, I will collect them and then send them to this organization in Michigan once I have a few collected. 

Thanks in advance. Even one really can make a difference.
