April's School-Wide Monthly Focus will be 'Digging into Decisions'.
This month we are digging into responsible decision making skills. This includes using the Problem Solving Steps from last month.
S: Say the problem
T: Think of solutions (Kelso Choices)
E: Explore consequences
P: Pick the best solution
What can you do at home to support this monthly focus?
Talk about decision making and use the STEP process at home.
You can model the process with decisions that you make by thinking of the choices you have, thinking through the pros/cons of them, and choosing the best one!
We can model and practice this with every day things like choosing the grocery list,
what’s for dinner that night, what to wear tomorrow based on the weather, etc.
