Making connections

By Kayla, Charles W. Henry School Healthy Hawk | Making connections with different people is helping our health. Having no connections can make you unhealthy. It means to make friends you can trust and who understand you.

An example is when the new student came into our class. I wasn’t there because I was absent, but my friends asked her to be friends. So the next day of school, I asked her if she wanted to be friends.

Some ways to stay connected to friends is by asking for a way to call them, possibly get them gifts, or just make sure they’re OK.
