Week of November 16

We are working on getting rid of 4th grade problems. This is the chart that helps us realize what we are doing. Then we wrote on a post-it, why we need to stay out of fights, be better in school, and keep on the smooth road. This is our way to stop fourth grade problems. This chart is to stay on the smooth road. S.T.E.P is the chart name S-Stands for say the problems,T stands for think of solutions, E stands for explore consequences, and P stands for pick the best solutions.

We watched a video to learn how to stop fourth grade problems. It helps us learn what to do when we are feeling stressed.

This is our chart of notes to help us know what to do, and everyone wrote on a post-it of what 4th grade problems can impact on.

These are our typical fourth grade problems. We are using our strategies to identify the problem without blame.
