HANDS ARE NOT FOR HITTING: AN EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITY

After the winter break we continued working on building classroom community.

This time we used the book "hands are not for hitting" the great thing about this collection is that they are also bilingual so the spanish teachers can help reinforce the concepts we work.

check out the collection:  http://www.freespirit.com/series/best-behavior/  and some of the activities we did using the book: http://csefel.vanderbilt.edu/booknook/hands/hands_new.pdf

After talking and discussing a lot about what are hands for, we made a board that we displayed on our halway walls with pictures of us doing good things with our hands.
