Life Skills | ||||
At North Columbus Elementary School our goal is to "Treat People Right and Do the Right Thing". The life skills help us achieve our goal. This year we are focusing on the following life skills: Friendship- to make and keep a friend Caring- to treat someone in a nice way Curiosity- to want to find out and learn new things Sense of Humor-to laugh and have fun without hurting others Pride- to feel good about doing your personal best Flexibility- to change plans without complaining Courage- to be brave Problem Solving- to find a way to take care of a problem Resourcefulness- to have good ideas for getting things done Cooperation- to work together Effort- to try your hardest Common Sense- to make good choices Initiative- to do something that needs to be done Organization- to plan and keep things ready to use Perseverance- to keep at it Patience- to be willing to wait as part of the process to resolve a particular situation Responsibility- to take care of yourself and be trusted to do what needs to be done Integrity- do what is right * It is important to reinforce these life skills at home and to use the same language so our boys and girls become good citizens!! |
