Seek First to Understand


The conversation started with the reading  of this article in the latest edition of
Scholastic News. 

#HistoryLesson


They couldn't understand why 
African Americans were not
allowed to eat in restaurants with
white customers.  After all this happened routinely, long before they were even born.   
#ClassDiscussion

One boy summed it this way:  
"If we took the skin "off"of you or
I, of anyone at all..... we'd still be human
beings.  So there really is no difference."
#2ndGradeWisdom
Best lesson of the day.....maybe of a lifetime.
Seek first to understand, 
then to be understood.
