Be Curious Not Judgemental

In our K-3 school counseling lesson this week we practiced asking questions and listening to help us learn about others. You can help your child by encouraging conversations inside and outside of your home.  Practicing helps us improve our communication skills. The more we get to know others the more we realize how much we have in common.

This week school counselors were in classrooms exploring the topic of building self-awareness with our K-3 students. They practiced noticing what they were feeling in their bodies, identifying what their body was trying to tell them and what they could do to take care of themselves and others when they have a strong emotion.

 


We are doing a series of lessons on Executive Function with our 4th grade students. This week we focused on impulse inhibition, we will cover working memory and mental flexibility in future lessons.
