We hope that everyone had a joyous Thanksgiving and are excited to return to school! This past month of November we focused Friendship and what it means to be a good friend.
Mrs. Jenn gave the talk to the girls and she pointed out some very good tips on friendship, such as:
God is in everyone and He is the best kind of friend
Treat everyone the way God loves everyone
Let a friend have first preference, show kindness, share, listen, be respectful,
Be a friend to the person with no or few friends, the person who is hard to get along with, the new person
Be friendly to everyone, but don't be friends with the person who makes bad choices
Be first to apologize and forgive
Tell a friend quietly what they are doing working, not embarrass them publicly
Love your family as well as you love your friends
Afterwards, our monthly activity was to decorate a Friendship Letter, that is, a wooden letter to give to a friend.
It was great to see the girls patiently waiting and sharing all of the material as they decorated their letters. And to see the artistic variety that came forth from every girl was incredible! Some letters simple and elegant, others were crazy and colorful, all were beautiful!! Way to go girls!!
Our quote for the monthly note card is: "A true friend thinks of you when everyone else thinks only of themselves"
Remember that the next meeting will be December 21st. We will be making no-bake cookies and the talk will be on patience!
Wishing you all a happy month,
Club Greenthread Team Leaders
