Reviewing our Problem Solving Tools!

 It has been AMAZING to be back with our Willow family - whether you are tuning in as an Independent Distance Learner or in our classrooms learning!  

As we have gotten "back into the swing of things" our students are reviewing the ways we solve problems with peers here at Willow.  We have "Stop, Walk, Talk" for disrespectful behaviors, "Rock, Paper, Scissors" for a quick, fair, and easy way to solve a small dispute, the Peace Path to talk through feelings with friends, and understanding when you need to get an adult.  I gave students different scenarios and they were asked to show me which tool they would use by doing a stretch pose with their bodies.  Here we see Ms. Buege's class showing the "Unicorn Stretch" to signify they would get an adult for a situation that involved a threat.  Even our friends at home joined us (and I hope they are having luck using these tools with their siblings 😉)

It was fun to get kids moving in Life Skills and remind us of the tools we can use together to solve problems!
