Kindergarten #1 Rule

Students were excited to learn that we only have one rule in kindergarten.  "I will never hurt anyone or anything on the inside or outside."  We talked about all the ways that someone can be hurt on the outside...hitting, pinching, pushing, slapping... you get the idea.  Harder for them to understand was how you could hurt someone on the inside...name calling, insults, "I'm not going to be your friend", etc.  Finally, we discussed that we need to take care of school and personal property.  Please talk with your child(ren) about this.
