A Common Language For All
The following is the information CLS Faculty and Staff will receive around this initiative for next week:
Responsibility: Before we begin to bridge the conversation between Responsibility and Courtesy in the following weeks, this week continue to discuss responsibilities at school, home, community, etc. The following are a few additional suggestions for conversation starters (different from last week’s suggestions), as well as an additional online resource: 1. Do you consider yourself to be a responsible person? Why? In what ways? 2. Do you consider it important for your friends and family members to be responsible? Why? 3. Think about somebody you know who is very responsible. How does that person demonstrate responsibility? Does that make you respect him/her more? https://www.care.com/child-care-9-tips-for-teaching-kids-responsibility-p1017-q25952880.html
