Safe & Unsafe Touches

Today Mr. John came to our classroom to begin talking with us about child protection. He began by introducing us to what a 'safe touch' is. We learned that safe touches are wanted and make us feel good. They make us smile. Touches such as handshakes, high fives, pats on the back or wanted hugs from loved ones can all be safe touches. Next week we will continue learning more about this with Mr. John and will examine unsafe touches a little more.

In the meantime, please sit down with your child and take a look at the paper he/she is bringing home today. You can fill out the backside together. This does not need to be returned to school; rather, it's an opportunity to open dialogue at home.
