This past week flew by! Students did great work all week and were really engaged.
On Tutoring Tuesday many students caught up in a lot of their classes. Conferences are this week so that may be part of the reason why.
Wednesday we completed the lesson called Today I choose...This lesson was all about the attitude and actions you want to follow that given day. For example you could say, today I choose to be positive or today I choose to help someone. Obviously we want the students to say something positive and overall I believe the students understood and like the idea of it.
On Thursday we learned about Social Emotional Learning and what it is all about. I told them that is basically the back bone of the YESS program but also for being a good person throughout life. We did a gallery walk where students learned about the 5 components of SEL; Self Awareness, Self Management, Social Awareness, Relationship Skills and Responsible Decision Making.
For No Fun Friday we played Taboo/Fish Bowl. There were a bunch of random words on paper that was in a box that was passed around in a circle. When it was your turn you had to describe your word to the group and if they got it, you got a point. Each person had a minute to try and get as many points as possible. They loved it!
Another great week in the books!
