GREAT IDEAS FROM OUR OWN TEACHING STAFF




While visiting PE class this week Mr. Ploof was explaining how he handles "minor disagreements" in his classroom.  Students are sent to the repair shop.  They have to follow the rules listed above. Student have to talk out their disagreement and decide upon a solution.  Once this takes place they share with Mr. Ploof and are allowed to return to the activity.  What a great way to teach children to solve their differences!   ( For a better view-drop by the gym and check it our for yourself!)

If you have any great ideas you would like to share  please let us know and they can be posted on the blog.
