Hello Parents,

I hope you are doing well!  If you are new to All Things E.Q. this year, here is a brief video introduction.  

Each week we introduce a question or motto to explore with the students, and we include the parents in our weekly parent updates. The motto this week in school is:
 

Are my thoughts helping me or hurting me?

 
The goal this week is to help students understand that their thinking can affect their experiences. Here are some questions you can ask your kids in the morning to help them think about their thinking:
 

• What do you think today will be like?
• Do you want a day like that?
• Can you picture a better day happening?
• What can you do to help make that day happen?

These questions acknowledge their current state of mind, while also encouraging them to think about new possibilities.

For more strategies, you can read the E.Q. Newsletter.
 
Thanks for participating in our weekly updates,
 
Best to you,

Danna Evans
