Moriches Elementary School 'Chooses Kind' on Wonder Day

Moriches Elementary School recently celebrated "Wonder Day," a day of positivity and kindness inspired by the book "Wonder."

From Moriches Schools: Moriches Elementary School recently celebrated “Wonder Day,” a day of positivity and kindness inspired by the book “Wonder” by R.J. Palacio, which was recently made into a hit movie. Fifth-grade students visited classrooms throughout the school for a read-a-loud of another R.J. Palacio book, “We’re All Wonders.” The fifth graders then helped students schoolwide create precepts or rules to live by which were hung in the school library as a reminder to “Choose Kind.” This day helped spread kindness and demonstrated to our students that they are all wonders,” said fifth-grade teacher Madison Gunderson.
