POSITIVITY PROJECT AT LONG MEADOW

Next Week's Positivity Character Strength: Humility

Picture
Parents and Guardians,
 
We are so excited to be partnering with the Positivity Project again this year.   
Next week, all children (grades K-5) will introduced Positivity characteristic of Humility. 
 
This year the Positivity project has developed a family resource connection so that you can be part of Positivity in Action at home.   We have provided the one page character card and age appropriate video based on grade.  Feel free to look at the other resources we well.  These resources will give families the opportunity to continue enriching discussions at home. The family link will include the definition of the character trait we are learning, a short video to watch as a family, and sample discussion questions to continue learning about Positivity in Action at home. ​

 What is the Positivity Project?
The Positivity Project, also referred to as P2, uses 24 character strengths to help students build positive relationships.  Positive relationships are the cornerstone to health, happiness and resilience.  Each week all children in grades kindergarten through fifth grade will be introduced and explicitly taught the same character strength.  Everyone in our Long Meadow family will be provided with the same definition for each character strength.  This common language along with classroom instruction tailored to each grade level, will help to provide students with a deeper understanding of each character trait.  Children will soon be able to “see what the character trait looks like” through the use of videos, books, and discussions.  Children will be able to identify character traits in themselves and others. 
 
We are looking forward to working with families joining with us putting Positivity in Actions. Please see the schedule below.

Need Help or Social Emotional Support?

Long Meadow will be updating this section of the Newsletter to provide some social emotion and other supports through out staff.  In this edition, we would like you to meet our social worker and school psychologist.

As we begin going back to school again, our students have a lot of thoughts and feelings coursing through them. Some are ready to re-enter the building, others, for various reasons, will struggle returning to the classroom.
The organization WhyTry explains the 3 R’s that help with student success, especially when we think about returning to school.
Relationship + Relevance= Resilience
WhyTry tells us that creating positive change in your child’s life starts first with building positive relationships with adults who foster value and worth in your child. As we know, it only takes ONE caring adult to help overcome adversity that your child may be facing. Who is that adult in your child’s life?
Students cannot internalize concepts, whether it be academic, behavioral interventions, social relationships, etc., unless they find relevance to those concepts. How does it apply to them and their everyday experience?
Finally, resilience is the sum of both relationship and relevance. As you know, resilience is the ability to “bounce back” from adversity or difficult situations. Resilience allows our students to thrive when challenges arise, push through, and find growth on the other side. When students find relevance in what they are learning, and they have positive relationships who show them their value, the results can be amazing. Studies show that resilient kids have an increase in academic engagement and performance and a decrease in social-emotional issues.
We hope that these 3 R’s help you and your student(s) as you begin to re-enter the school buildings and in everyday challenges they may face in the future.
