Hello, readers! Please pardon the delayed entry.
On Monday, the mentors and I discussed the term "confidentiality" and why it's important in a trusting relationship. Naturally, mandatory reporting is a part of this discussion and there was a robust conversation around what to tell and to whom.
Tuesday, students continued their efforts to stay on top of their school work. Most scholars brought work to complete and a few mentors focused their energy solely on their mentees. I'm always proud of how the students guide each other through difficult assignments!
We discussed personal goals on Wednesday and referenced the Values Worksheet from a few weeks ago. Everyone set a solid EmoSMART Goal and even discussed which people from their Community Maps could help them achieve that objective!
The students wrote 6-Word Sentences on Thursday, then decorated them. Many kids struggled to sum up their lives or personalities in six words, but they pushed through the barrier and accomplished the task.
On our spooky Friday-the-13th, we finished our 6-Word Sentence assignment, then played a cool word game called Rattled. It's an awesome way to boost kids' vocabulary skills because they get a string of eight random letters. Their job is to work with their Kagan team to make as many words as possible in two minutes.
