Celebrate NP3 for Well Integrated Social and Emotional Learning!
NP3 is so great because so many of the staff apply some of these skills in the classroom already! For example, one of the key skills is relationship building - this is something our Advisory Program is built around! Teachers at NP3 practice this by connecting with students and building relationships by helping students resolve conflict, express their thoughts and feelings and guide them in making better decisions every day! What else can you start doing in the classroom that will help build a better relationship with students?
