Title One Parent Reading Corner:
Teamwork is an important part of life in school and at home. Try fun games like these to help your child practice cooperating with others to reach a common goal:
Here’s a great way to create your pirate name:
1 Pick a color. 2 Choose an animal.
3 Name a profession.
4 Put steps 1,2,3 together to create your name.
Title One Parent SEL Tips:
Teamwork is an important part of life in school and at home. Try fun games like these to help your child practice cooperating with others to reach a common goal:
1. Line up, and pass a balloon from one person to another without dropping it - using anything but your hands.
2. Stand in a circle, and hold hands. Then, have everyone turn around so they’re facing the opposite direction. The catch? You can’t let go of each other’s hands!
