Core Value of the Month
Last Month: OCTOBER: Integrity
NOVEMBER: Gratitude
[ grat-i-tood ] ~ noun
Gratitude is showing others you know how they have helped you.
"Our Big Idea this month is gratitude. It’s so important to spend some time each day reflecting on things that fill us with gratitude. Even when times are tough, there is much to be grateful for. In some families, there is a Thanksgiving tradition of going around the table so that each family member can share something they’re thankful for. Let’s not wait until November 24 to start that exercise. Instead, share words of gratitude with your friends, teachers, and family starting now. Gratitude is letting others know you see how they’ve helped you."
"Skinks look like lizards of the family Lacertidae (sometimes called true lizards), but most species of skinks have no pronounced neck and relatively small legs. Several kinds of skinks have no limbs at all.
A trait apparent in many species of skink is digging and burrowing. Many spend their time underground where they are mostly safe from predators, sometimes even digging out tunnels for easy navigation.
Skinks typically seek out environments protected from the elements, such as thick foliage, underneath man-made structures, and ground-level buildings such as garages and first-floor apartments. When two or more skinks are seen in a small area, it is typical to find a nest nearby. Skinks are considered to be territorial and often are seen standing in front of or "guarding" their nest area."
Other words for gratitude: thankfulness, appreciativeness, recognition
