Educational Values of an Eagle
The distance between dreams and reality is called action!
This month, we are working on G - Go Getter
Please take time to review with your student over the next few weeks.
Some children tend to be naturally motivated, independent and focused. However, other children need some help in developing the right go-getter attitude.
It's vital for parents to practice patience, and not force. One main skill helps: Playing
Playing helps children through a step-by-step learning process
Playing increases their motivation and desire to master things
Playing provides practice opportunities and decision making
Playing allows your children some freedom to choose new things (age appropriate)
Winter / Spring Recess
We try to go outside whenever we can for recess. Please make sure that your student has a winter coat, gloves and a hat everyday. In addition, you may send snow pants and boots if your student would like to play in the snow. If students don't have snow pants and boots, we will ask them to stay on the black top.
If you need any of these items, please reach out to the main office, we can gladly help.
