The Weekly Wildcat Wisdom
This week's focus is :Emotion Management
The more emotion words children know, the better they can communicate what they're experiencing.
Try words such as:
😊 excited
😟 worried
😤 frustrated
😔 disappointed
😳 embarrassed
😌 calm
💬 Ask: “What feeling did you have today?”
What made you feel that way?”
You could also ask children to choose one of these six emotion words and describe a time they experienced that feeling.

Our Kops and Kids Food Drive is just around the corner! This is a great chance for our students, families, and local police officers to team up and help make sure no one in our community goes hungry this season.
📅 Date: November 2nd to November 20th
We’ll be collecting non-perishable food items like canned goods, pasta, rice, cereal, peanut butter, and more. We will also be collecting cash donations. All donations will be given to the Union Food Pantry.
This event is all about:
· Giving back to families who need a little extra support
· Building positive connections between kids and local officers
· Showing how small acts of kindness can make a big difference
As in years past, students can bring in their canned goods or cash donations to their homeroom/first period class. The class with the most donations from each building will receive a Pizza Party from the Union Police Department.
Please see the attached flyer for more information. If you have any questions, please let me know or reach out to your school’s SRO.
