Summary:
In this week’s lesson, your child will practice using helpful thoughts to encourage themselves and keep going while learning a dance with their classmates.
Try This at Home:
Ask your child to suggest some helpful thoughts to encourage you or another family member to complete a challenging task (for example, a school/home/work project, or an exercise routine).
Second Grade
Summary:
In this week’s lesson, your child will learn that helpful thoughts can help us keep going when we’re learning and that unhelpful thoughts might make us want to give up.
Try This at Home:
Ask your child whether the thoughts they have when they’re learning something new are helpful or unhelpful. Ask your child to share examples of helpful thoughts they know.
Third Grade
Summary:
In this week’s lesson, your child will make their own practice plan.
Try This at Home:
Ask your child share their practice plan with you. If they brought it home, find a place to display it where they’ll see it every day. Check in to see how their plan is going and support them if they need help adjusting their plans.
Fourth Grade
Summary:
In this week’s lesson, your child will be able to reflect on the characteristics that make someone an upstanding digital citizen. They will be able to recognize what cyberbullying is and show ways to be an upstander by creating a digital citizenship superhero comic strip.
