Our motto is:
It’s ok if you don’t know
But it’s not ok if you don’t try!
Making mistakes help us learn and thoughts help us grow!
Remind your child that: “I can’t do it,” does not exist. Encourage them to think,
“I can’t do it…. Yet!”
On occasion, the children will be randomly paired up with a new learning partner. This helps to develop the children’s relationships with their classmates and ensures that all children are involved in whole class discussions.
