6. Title One Tidbits: Title I T & T
(Being Responsible)
Megan keeps up with her homework and is always ready for soccer practice on time.
The reason? She has learned about responsibility from a young age.
Consider these hands-on ways to help your youngster be responsible, too.
A. Part of the Team
Show your child that everyone’s responsibilities matter. Have him/her cut bookmark-sized strips of paper and write a family activity on one (eating dinner). On the others, he/she should write jobs that make it happen (plan the meal, buy groceries, cook, set the table). Now let him/her link the strips to make a chain. They'll see that dinner relies on everyone doing their job!
B. Around the Clock
Help your youngster get in the habit of handling him/her responsibilities on time. Let your child draw a clock on paper or poster board and add sticky notes labeled with daily tasks. He/She might put “Homework” at 4 p.m. and “Walk the dog” at 7 p.m. Have him/her post the clock in a visible spot as a reminder.
C. Caught in the Act
“Catch” your child being responsible, and tell him/her you noticed. (“That was responsible of you to throw away your trash.”) You could even snap photos of your child
responsible behavior (say, making their bed) and hang them on the refrigerator. Seeing
the photos will inspire him/her to continue being responsible.♥
7. EXACT Path: Students are encouraged to log into EXACT Path daily while at home. They have a dedicated time during the school day to work on their learning paths. However, we do encourage students to continue practicing their "Leveled" skills in their "Reading and Math" learning pathways. Students are recognized bi-weekly for their mastery progress and usage minutes.
