MARC Lessons
(Massachusetts Regression Reduction Center)
Students in grades K to 5 will be learning skills and strategies to deal with Bullying and other topics. During our afternoon L.E.A.P (Learning, Enrichment and Practice) lesson the students have been doing a variety of lessons. They are creating comic books, reading stories, watching videos, identifying what makes them so special and doing surveys to identify what the needs are at our school in reference to bully prevention.
Problem Solvers Group
Soon our new group will be up and running with fifteen fifth grade problem solvers. These students will work Monday, Wednesday and Thursday during their recess to help other students in the school solve their problems. The problem solvers will give students ideas for solutions and then follow up with students to see if the situation has been resolved. Students should contact their teacher or myself if there is a problem to be solved and then the problem solvers will be notified. All students are encouraged to try to solve their problem with the skills they have been learning but if all else fails they can consult the problem solvers group.
