Being Grateful!

2/17/2022

 
The end of February can be very challenging with the snow, the weather, and the dreariness of the sky. To help combat this, we’re going to look for ways that we can see the good in the world and in the universe.
Moving into our new term and thinking about how we’re going to get better, be better, and create better, I think this it’s fair to say that happiness is key to our success.  Watch this video, presented at a TED talk on happiness. When you’ve finished watching, your job is to create your very own HAPPINESS /Gratitude JOURNAL.  There has been tons of research that explains how if we take the time to write down what we appreciate and the good things that happen in a day, our mental state becomes happier and more positive.  

For your blog I’d like you to post a Gratitude Journal for this week, and write down 3 things that you were glad happened, positive events and/or things you’re thankful for. 
Title your blog post “Your Name -- Gratitude Journal” and list your 3 things in numbered form, providing a full sentence(s) with DETAIL. Here’s an example:
  1. I am grateful for my family. Having Jacey, Vera, and Stella at home helps ground me, and helps me realize that I have an important role to play in helping the girls become the best people they can be. Each day I realize that they help me be better, help me realize that life is about more than myself and encourage to to also be my best. 
I can’t wait to share what we are grateful for! It’s been proven that being grateful leads to a happier life. This would be a great habit to get into. Keep a journal beside your bed, and every day or even once a week (on a specific day), write down 3 things you are grateful for!

1. I am grateful for my family. When I have my Mom, Dad, Brother and dog (Tilly) around I feel safe and like I'm not going to get hurt. They help me do all the things I love to do like drama!

2. Drama! because it make's me feel confident in what I am doing. When I have a script in my hand it makes me Feel like I know what to say and do.

3. My friends at school because when I'm feeling low they come and help me. And at recess I always have someone to play with.

1. I'm glad my family is with me because I can not do anything without my family. They teach me stuff, have with me and love me. I am grateful for my family.
2. Sunday was the best weekend I have had in a long time. We went down to Niagara Falls, looked at stores, then we walked down to the arcade and played games for hours. I won lots of tickets and got some fun prizes. Then we went to the candy store and it had the best candy in the whole world.
3. I am grateful for my dog named Hank. Because every time I am a grump he always makes me scratch him and that makes me feel better. I love to cuddle him even though he snores very loud!

1. I was happy that I got to play the recorder in music today. I like to learn and play songs.
2. I was happy when I was playing a game called Magic: The Gatherine with my dad. I opened a really rare card and that was really exciting.
3. I was grateful that Monday was Family Day and that I could spend the day having fun with my family. We went for a walk, and I got all muddy because it was warm out.
