Class meeting: After sharing news, we read a quote by Charles Swindoll. It talked about attitude. We talked about how many bad things can happen to us but nobody can take away or control our ability to choose our attitude. Mr. Swindoll says, "I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it."

Read Aloud
