Self-Concept

It is important for children to feel good about themselves in order to learn and do their best. In fact, it is important for all of us to feel good about ourselves in order to do our best work.
Here are a few ideas for helping your child feel good about himself or herself. See if you can add more ideas to this list................
1) At the dinner table, have everyone say one good thing about each person at the table. Try to do this at least once a week.
2) Tell your child one thing he or she does that makes you proud.
3) Put your child’s papers on the refrigerator door so that everyone can admire them.
4) Brag about your children in front of the grandparents ~ they love to hear things about their grandchildren!

Have a good week. Continue to enjoy your child at home as much as I do at school.
