Hope your week is off to a great start after the fall break.
We are excited to share what we did in last week's class. Please feel free to read the Nov 11 Class Summary. We introduced a Posture and Smile Check during class. When you raise your rigth hand, it would mean that the kids have to sit criss cross, straight and tall and smile for you. If your left hand is raised, they can continue being in their slouchy, sluggish posture. Give it a try and see if they remember. We played a version of the Telephone Telephone game that taught the kids to be Alert and pay attention to what their friends were saying. It taught them how things can easily get out of hand and misunderstood if you don't pay attention and are not alert.
Enjoy the rest of the week and we will see you in the morning on Sunday Nov 18.

What lesson did you learn from the Story of the Lazy Lion King Leo?
Ans. Even if you are blessed with a crown like Leo, you may have to give it up if you are Lazy. If we care about people and help them then we will automatically become a King in everyone’s heart by virtue of our actions.
