This week we discussed the steps in problem-Solving. We read What Should Danny Do? and interactive book that lets the students make the choices for Danny. With each situation Danny faced we discussed what we thought options to solve the problems could be. Then students voted on which of the provided choices Danny should make and we followed his journey.
Our Grant All-Stars were great at picking the best choices. I explained to them that the reason we practice these steps is because even when know what to do it can be hard to make the kind and respectful choice, so this reminds us to think about the possible outcome of our choices. As we saw in the story that even when make the best choice, sometimes other problems still arise or we aren't able to make the best choice because our emotions are in control and now we have to think about how to try again. Students learned these steps of Problem-Solving: D- Deep Breathing at least twice. S- Say the Problem T - Think of a way to solve it. E - Explore what could happen. P - Pick the best choice. We have the power to choose how we react to a situation, even if when we have no control over the event itself. Comments are closed.
