2nd Step Social Emotional learning Tip of the Week

Starting this week, students will be learning PROBLEM SOLVING skills.  Lessons will use the acronym S.T.E.P. to help students remember the skills.

FIRST STEP – calm down and say the problem without blaming others. 

Look for times this week that your child is able to first use the calm down tools and say the problem without blame.  Reinforce this with specific feedback!

Parent Script Tip:  “I saw you calm down and say that the problem is you both need to use the computer at the same time.”

Look for the rest of the Problem Solving Steps over the next weeks in the 2nd Step Tip of the Week!

  • S – Say the Problem
  • T –
  • E –
  • P –
