SWPBS Values Superstars

Congratulations to the students who achieved 20 value cards last week! We appreciate you!

Kimochis

Students across year levels are learning to use the Keys to Communication in the Kimochis social emotional learning program. These are the first 5 from the Early Childhood Curriculum. There's another two the older classes will add on.

They help teachers and students to have a shared language to clearly name, model and practise helpful communication strategies. They help us work out where we went wrong and could do better another time. We practise them in class together and discuss tricky scenarios. We highly recommend checking the Keys out and chatting with your child(ren) about them. It can give you useful language to use at home too.

I shared a video explaining Key 1 last newsletter. Here are some more great explainer videos. 

I love how these ones have adults modelling using the Keys to Communication. It reinforces the idea that we all make mistakes, which is so important to children developing social competencies.
