As we do at the end of most guidance lessons, a class of kindergartners and I prepared to dance to a song that went with the topic we'd been discussing. This one was a rollicking tune called "B A Good Student", and it was enhanced by a jazzy brass section. When the teacher heard me announce the song, she said, "Wait! I want to make a video to show my husband." As she found her phone and got ready to record us, the kids buzzed with excitement. Some rolled their eyes and shook their heads with a grin on their faces, some nudged each other and giggled, some slapped their foreheads and said "Oh brother!". But the funniest reaction came from a little boy with a head full of golden curls. Using his OUTSIDE voice, he belted out, "DON'T PUT IT ON FACEBOOK!" I guess you could call that a sign of the times!
This is mostly a blog of everyday stories from my work as a primary school counselor. Some are funny, some are touching, but they all stand out as memorable moments. Sometimes I'll include photos, ideas that are working for me, and meaningful quotes. Enjoy!
