Good Friend: Someone who is kind, listens, helps, and plays with others in a fair and caring way. Being a good friend means treating others with respect

ACTIVITIES YOU CAN DO AT HOME TO SUPPORT YOUR CHILD'S LEARNING

Think about your Strengths: Talk with a family member about what you’re good at. Are you good at sharing, helping, listening, or being kind? Choose one strength you want to focus on this week.

 Acts of Kindness:

At Home: Use your strength to help someone in your family. For example, if you're good at helping, you might help clean up after dinner. If you're good at listening, you can listen to someone talk about their day.

For a Friend: Think of how you can use your strength to be a good friend at school. Maybe you can share with a friend or include someone in a game.

Draw and Write: Draw a picture showing how you used your strength to help someone. Write one sentence about what you did.

For example:

"I used my strength of sharing to let my brother use my toys."

Bonus: Talk with your family about how they use their strengths to be good friends and family members too!
