Life is Good- Superpower Kit Fun!


This year in homeroom we are focusing on a different SUPERPOWER each month.  These superpowers come from the community read we had a few years ago.  The book was "Life is Good, The Book: How to Live with Purpose and Enjoy the Ride".   Many of you may be familiar with the Life is Good t-shirt brand.  I encourage you to read this book!  It focuses on 10 Superpowers, which coincide with the 10 months of the school year.  A few years ago, as a school, we focused on these superpowers.   Now we are bringing them back!   With the generosity from our Curriculum Enrichment program through the PTO, we purchased the Life is Good Superpower Kit for our classroom!  I had already started to read picture books and discuss September's theme of Openness before we got the kit, so the kids were familiar with the idea.   Now that we have the kit, we are using the ideas to have wonderful, meaningful Morning Meetings.  

This month of October, the superpower is Creativity.  The kids have enjoyed some activities such as, Magic Ball, Piece by Piece Masterpiece, Slideshow, Superpower Breathing, and Circles, Squares, and Triangles.   All these activities have sparked the imagination and creativity.  The students have had chances to earn badges each month as well. 

I'm loving seeing our classroom community bond over the discussion of these superpowers!!
