indness is spreading like confetti
here at McClellan Elementary
School! Our OLWEUS Bullying
Prevention Program is off to
a fantastic start this school year. All
of the classrooms have been reading
books and completing projects and
discussions centered on the theme
of kindness. Our school-wide project
is a “Kindness Bingo” game. Every
classroom created a bingo board
58 West Jefferson Hills
By Beth Thomas – 4th grade teacher
filled with random acts of kindness
that students can easily participate
in at school. As students catch one
another completing the deeds, they
place stickers on the game board.
The boards are filling up with stickers,
and students are really showing how
amazing it is to be kind to one another.
Students will also have the opportunity
to participate in school-wide, monthly
service projects. This way the students
are spreading the kindness around the
community and the school!
For the month of October, we
started off our service projects with
a Halloween candy drive for the
Ronald McDonald House Charities
of Pittsburgh. The day after trick-ortreating, McClellan students brought in
candy donations. Our students did not
just go to the store and buy the candy.
They sorted through their own candy,
