FROM MRS. MUNSON

            Focus for the Week: “I set goals for myself”. Talking with your child about setting goals helps them feel confident and gives them a sense of purpose. When children learn how to set and work toward goals, they build focus, decision-making skills, and self-esteem -– skills that matter for all of us, no matter our age! Here’s a helpful article with tips for supporting your child:             https://biglifejournal.com/blogs/blog/goal-setting-for-kids  

Here are some books to read this week:
