Mr. McDonald Is Reading "The Grinch"

Please note for the record that I firmly believe reading "The Grinch" is much better than watching "The Grinch".   I'm a big Dr. Seuss fan and love getting into the rhyming rythms of his books!!    I'm also a sucker for the message behind this story.   If the Grinch can make a turn around and see the value in giving and being nice then anyone can.     That's what our Character Education efforts are all about at Victory P.S.!    I love watching the Grinch take responsibilty for his actions, show respect to the Whos, and demonstrate sincere compassion which was sorely missing for most of his life.    ( even his heart grows!!!) .  

Demonstrating "Character Education" does not require massive changes or a "grinch like transformation".    There are many small things you can do too....    Think about ways this holiday season that you can show respect, responsibility, compassion, fairness and honesty.     Have a wonderful holiday with family and friends and Merry Christmas to all!
