2nd Step TIP OF THE WEEK

Social Emotional Learning Tip of the Week:
How to be respectful and a good listener at school and at home! 

For PK, Kinder & 1st graders the language being used is:

  • Eyes watching: Point to the corners of your eyes. 
  • Ears listening: Cup your ears with your hands. 
  • Voice quiet: Put your finger to your lips. 
  • Body still: Hug your torso with both arms. 

For 2nd through 5th graders the language being used is: 

  • Be kind and polite
  • Take turns
  • Pay attention and listen to the speaker
  • Raise your hand to speak

Connecting the language teachers use at school and parents use at home strongly reinforces the behaviors!  Thank you for being awesome parents to awesome kids!
