With habit 4 students practice skills such as compromise, empathy, compassion and problem solving. Think Win-Win is balancing courage for getting what I want (my “first things”) with consideration for what others want. When conflicts arise, look for a win-win solution for all parties.
Incorporating Habit 4 at home: Model being happy for others. “The Smith family got a new car. How great for them!” “Mike got a new video game? I bet you were very happy for your friend.” Have Family Celebration times. Around the dinner table or in a Family Meeting allow time for children and parents to share something they did well or something positive they experienced in their day. Celebrate each accomplishment and listen to experiences. Be careful not to compare children. Praise each for their own accomplishments.
The following books help reinforce Habit 4- Think Win-Win. Enjoy some reading time as a family and discuss how to incorporate this habit in family life. (Titles include: The Butter Battle Book by Dr. Seuss, Alexander and the Wind-Up Mouse by Leo Lionni, The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister, The Doorbell Rang by Pat Hutchins,The Very Clumsy Click Beetle by Eric Carle,and Let’s Be Enemies by Janice May Udry)
Motor City Mitten Mission Collecting Take-Out Containers
Motor City Mitten Mission is a non profit organization right here in Grosse Pointe Park that provides assistance to the homeless community in Detroit and Windsor. It’s cofounders are Grosse Pointe residents! They provide mats and pillows that are crocheted from plastic bags. They also provide outreach meals 4x a week directly to the homeless that cannot make it into a shelter for whatever reason. They require many carry out containers and they’re asking for our help! Do have that drawer of containers from last night’s carry out?! If so, Trombly Terriers will be collecting them for Motor City Mitten Mission! Please wash and send them with your child to school. There will be a drop off box in the office. We will be collecting them all year! Thank you for recycling and giving back to the community through MCMM.
