Character Bag


Our theme in ELA this month has been all about me, in other words, getting to know the students.  Starting on Monday, the students will be presenting a character bag with items that represent 4 of our basic needs: Love and Belonging, Power, Fun, Freedom.  They are to choose an item that represents each of these needs, for example, for love and belonging, your child may choose to bring a picture of their family, and for freedom, your child may want to include a book in their character bag.  One item can represent more than one need (for example, a picture with friends may represent love and belonging, as well as fun).  
The items should be small and fit in a paper bag, which your child will decorate at school.  Your child has written out a plan, so you may ask them to refer to that plan.  
I do ask that your child not bring anything valuable to school.  The items will be sent home once the presentations are completed (either on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week).
Please email me if you have any further questions.
