Positive Attitude

For the month of November, Laura Richards students will be focusing on having a "Positive Attitude". They are learning that having a positive attitude means they need to TRY LIKE CRAZY!! We know that sometimes learning new concepts or skills may be challenging for students and take awhile to master, but if students try really hard with an "I can do it" attitude, they will be successful!

Here are two articles you may wish to read on fostering your child's positive attitudes at home by focusing on your child's strengths and gifts and building resiliency!
