Discussion points – In addition to discussing environmental matters, this a great opportunity to talk about how we have to adjust, change plans, cope, get creative and move forward. Once upon a time, a teacher talked with her class and said, “Sometimes it seems like there is only bad news. Can you come up with some good news?” In response, one of her 8 year-old students, Caitlin, created a picture with her answer, “I got a new bike. And I am having macaroni tonight.” More than ever, it’s time to take a moment to celebrate even the smallest, bright things! How would your student answer this question? And what about you?
