Be Happy

If you've ever rolled out of bed and felt grumpy the moment you got up, then you have to blame it on the "grouchies." Debbie Wagenbach's story The Grouchies gave Class 1-5 a perfect tale of how the grouchies can follow you around all day and make everyone miserable.  Through rhymes, which students identified right away, and a cute little chant by the "grouchies," we learned that we shouldn't listen to the grouchies if we want to have a good day.  Hopefully, the children will keep the smiley face clouds around them instead.
