Social Skills: Students will learn how to thrive in their social environment by developing friendship building, finding new interests to relate to others, and believe in themselves. The Boys Town Social Skills Model will be implemented. The attached document gives an overview of skills to be practiced. If you would like to learn more please go to the Boys Town Parenting website.

Book Orders: I will send home book orders occasionally. If you would like to order, make checks payable to the Book Club and send back to school. You may also order online. If you would like to order online go to the Scholastic website enter our class code, which is R9FMM.

Students engaged in Action Based Learning show improved memory retention, increased focus and attention, improved grades, and less behavioral issues. Action Based Learning Classrooms are designed to prepare the brain for learning.
