As I shared last week, we had our second, schoolwide Mental-Health Awareness lesson on Monday. At EAMS, we engage students in three lessons over the course of the year. Each lesson aims at reducing stigma around mental health and giving students tools to help themselves and others. The lesson was delivered by our school social worker, and a system for meeting with our school counselors, if needed, was included. This lesson was focused on A-C-T, which stands for ACKNOWLEDGE-CARE-TELL. Linked here, you will find the lesson video and slidedeck.
Today, our Olweus lesson was about giving thanks and ties nicely into our Wish Week and Thanksgiving.
For our Remote Learning next week, students will follow this schedule:
Students will report to all of their classes except for study hall, and teachers will be present throughout for instruction and feedback on student learning. Students and families number one resource for remote learning will be to access our teacher Learning Maps. As well, I have attached our Remote Learner Expectations that were reviewed with students today.
As items come up that you have questions or concerns about, please do not hesitate to contact me, and have a great weekend!
