THE VOYAGE  
We are starting a new unit on The Voyage with your children. This unit we are learning about Responsibility. Responsibility is making good choices and owning your behavior. As always, each week we have an action point to focus on different aspects of responsibility. Here's our action point for this week: "Responsibility is being in control of how you act." 
Please click on the link below to watch a short video that will help you to think about how you live out this anchor in your life and model this for your child/children.
