Life Choices

This month we have spent a great deal of time establishing school and classroom routines and expectations.  The children have come up with an encouraging list of "Life Choices" by which they would like to see followed by all students and staff in our learning environment.  See the picture below to see what the children came up with all on their own! :)

Among many different activities, the children sorted a variety of actions into behaviors that would be above and beyond what is expected, society's expectations of model citizens, and behaviors that are undesirable and/or hurtful to others.  Quiz your child with different behaviors and ask him/her to explain why those behaviors would be acceptable or unacceptable.
