News from the DP's Desk
This week’s PBL focus is – Be a Learner Self-reflect and problem solve.
Please talk about this with your child.
Zones of Regulation
This weeks students unpacked the 4 zones of regulation with their teacher.
Zones of Regulation is:
- A proactive, skills based approach
- A simple, common language to understand, talk about, and teach regulation
- A consistent, metacognitive pathway to follow for regulation
- A systematic framework with a developmental sequence of lessons
- Meant to be adapted for your learners and setting
Why Teach Self-Regulation?
Regulation is something everyone continually works on whether we are aware of it or not. We all encounter trying circumstances that can test our limits. If we can recognize when we are becoming less regulated, we are able to do something about it to manage our feelings and get ourselves to a healthy place. This comes more naturally for some, but for others it is a skill that needs more attention and practice. This is the goal of The Zones of Regulation.
Attendance
Our school goal for attendance is 93%. This week’s attendance is 90%.
We know how important education is for your child's future. That's why we want to encourage you to make sure your child attends school every day. Attending school regularly helps your child develop important skills, like reading, writing, and math. It also helps them build social skills, make new friends, and learn how to work collaboratively with others.
