We have also offered PM Enrichment classes for boys and girls in 1st and 2nd grade this year. During the first session we had: Girlfriends and Games. We met weekly to play games, role play, read stories about friendship and make a craft.
Our second session was: Boys and Board Games. We had weekly discussions about what makes a good friend and how to be a good friend. The boys also played games of strategy such as: Battleship, Pentago, Blokus, Uno, and Connect Four. Many discussions centered around being a good sport and playing by the rules.
The final session was: Crafts and Character for Girls. We read stories, had discussions about what the characteristics are of a good friend, made crafts to share with a friend, and we collected 100 dresses for girls who are less fortunate.
