GAMS is Celebrating Kindness in February


The Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Value of the Month for February is KINDNESS! 

In an effort to promote mindsets and behaviors to promote a positive school culture and climate and develop a sense of acceptance, respect, support and inclusion for all students GAMS is launching their "Social Emotional Learning Kindness Campaign" the week of February 12-16th! The theme is: “SPREAD SPOTS OF KINDNESS.” 

Kindness is a powerful tool for nurturing the well-being of everyone! Adults and children alike. It's a significant step towards empowering our students to be their best selves through KINDNESS! 

Science has proven good reasons to prioritize kindness, backed by evidence of many physical, emotional, and mental health benefits. Many impressive benefits support teaching kindness in schools to decrease negative behavior:

 

 

There will be many different activities going on throughout the week so that “ together” we can “ SPREAD SPOTS OF KINDNESS!” This will include the week's activities, celebrations and shared resources!
