During our morning sharing circle today, students shared their ideas about the many ways that our words and actions affect others. They were so insightful and thoughtful. Here is what they had to say:
...negative words can cause mental and emotional harm by making people feel bad about themselves
...negative words do no show empathy for others
...negative actions can cause physical harm
...you can't take negative words back and you might regret ever saying them
...negative words make situations worse rather than better and can have a domino affect
...negative words and actions are a bad example to others and can leave scars that will last forever
...sometimes negative words lead to negative actions and can be a form of bullying
...negative words and actions have REAL consequences like you can get in trouble
...compliments are positive words that make people feel good about themselves
...positive words can be encouraging and help people to persevere when they are struggling
...positive, kind words are a way of showing RESPECT for others
...positive words can be helpful and make situations better
...when people hear you use positive words or see you do positive actions, it makes them like you
....you should always think before you act and follow the 'Golden Rule'
POSITIVE ACTIONS & WORDS = FRIENDSHIP, LOVE & HAPPINESS!
