This week, students are continuing their work on problem solving. The last time we met, we learned about and reviewed “I feel” and, in third grade, “you feel” statements. They look like this:
I feel __________ when you ________. I would like you to __________.
You feel _________ when I _________. You would like me to _________.
For this lesson, students continued to work with this problem solving strategy. They brainstormed different I feel and you feel statements they might use to resolve different conflict situations.
Please continue to encourage your children to try this strategy at home. Practice is important for many things, including (and perhaps especially) problem solving.
Sincerely,
