Second Step
This year, we are proud to add Character Education, using the Second Step program, to our existing curriculum.
Year 6 students pay attention to social status and need skills to deal with gossip and peer pressure. Additionally, they need skills to help them self-regulate so they can focus in class and learn.
The research-based Second Step program includes activities, award-winning videos and guided classroom discussions to help students understand the complexities of feelings and reactions so they can be ready to learn and deal with emotions and problems responsibly.
Read more about Social and Emotional Learning here.
Welcome to Second Step!
Make sure to join SecondStep.org with the Activation Key SSP5 FAMI LY75 to watch videos about the Second Step program and get information about what your child is learning.
