Happy Spring! It’s been a year since all of our worlds changed with being locked down but this month there is a lot of hope for our lives going back to “normal”. It's important to keep a routine for our students, which creates a sense of consistency and security.
This past month, the counseling staff have piloted a Health Week presentation in most of the Newton classrooms and we are continuing the Health Week in the Edison Classroom through April. We'll also be going into all of the classrooms to discuss internet safety. These presentation have included subjects such as personal hygiene, puberty, healthy relationships (in real life and online), and harmful substances. A portion of the presentation talks about daily hygiene routines which helps our students create better habits. Here is an example of a daily routine chart that can be displayed around the classroom, bathroom, or at home.
