Title - Back-To-School Expectations
By - Barbara Delnero
Primary Subject - Other
Grade Level - 3-6

After writing the child's name on the front of a small, brown lunchbag, fill it with the following items and a list of explanations:

1 Hershey hug ~ everyone can use a hug or a positive compliment

1 rubber band ~ everyone needs to bend and stretch to compromise

1 toothpick ~ to always "pick out" the positives in a person

1 eraser ~ we all make mistakes

1 penny ~ because each person's thoughts count

1 candy mint ~ because each is worth "a mint."

1 tissue ~ to dry someone's tears

1 Band-Aid ~ to heal someone's hurt

1 Q-tip ~ to always listen before responding

Sugar cookies (in capitals) of their first and last initial ~ to show that they are important

These items allow many opportunities for discussion, getting to know each child, and seeing how they articulate their thoughts.
