A BIG conclusion came and smacked Ms Saxon, Miss Rait and Sue in the face!! Aaaarghhhh!! We worked out that the children who are our most responsible learners in 98Navigators are the ones who have the most responsibilities at home! We can't expect children to take responsibility in the classroom and manage themselves if they don't know how!
Some children will come home and have a chat about about how you can help them tonight.
I have a responsibility to my sports teams and coaches to turn up to trainings and games on time, with a good attitude and to perform at my best.
ReplyDeleteGood thinking Ben. I have people on my soccer team that help out or offer to help me at practices.
DeleteI help my coaches pack up after training and after games and always say thank you.
