For the past two weeks, we've focused on the lifelong guidelines of "Truthfulness" and "Trustworthiness." Typically teachers have at least one short activity per day to help students expand their understanding of a guideline. This can be a definition, an example, a role playing exercise, or even a "teachable moment"--an event that comes up in class that fits the guideline and is discussed with the guideline in mind.
The feedback about Lifelong Guidelines and Lifeskills from students, parents and teachers has been positive. However, if you are wondering what this is all about or if you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask your child's teacher or me.
For this week, we are focusing on "Active Listening." I hope you'll take a moment to ask your child what they've learned about active listening.
