Guidance Theme of the Month
Dear Parents,
This month guidance lessons will be on cooperation. Students will learn that cooperation is a willingness to work as a member of a team. You follow the rules that keep everyone safe and happy because you know that together we can accomplish great things. Students will learn that we show cooperation when:
- You work in a group to accomplish a task
- You listen to other people's opinions and include their ideas in the group
- You do your house chores without being asked more than once
- You play a team sport and work toward a goal
- You put competition aside when working on a project with your classmates
- You help in community projects such as cleanups and community plantings
At home you can help by reviewing the virtue of the month and encouraging your child to cooperate at home, school, and play.
Thank you for modeling cooperation for your child!
