This site has short, easy and direct teaching lessons to teach the social skills we want to teach this month and beyond. It is broken down into columns - Prerequisite (skills) and then Skills in the classroom, with peers and then adults. Many of the lessons start with some role playing and then discussion, while others have a small art activity or reflection component.
LITTER pick up
Demonstrating leadership at the school level includes keeping our school clean. Take some time to head out with your TAG class at least once during your designated week to pick up litter in our school yard.
