Milne Grove teachers and staff want your child to be as successful as possible at school. Success in school is not just about reading and math. It is also about knowing how to learn and how to get along with others. To help our children be successful, we provide instruction specific to learning and getting along with other people.
We are using the Second Step program in Mrs. Adam’s and Mrs. Preboy’s classrooms to teach these critical skills to our kindergarten students. First through third grades attend Morning Mindfulness to learn these skills. These are part of District 91’s universal system of behavior support. The Second Step program teaches skills in the following four areas: 1. Skills for Learning, 2. Empathy, 3. Emotion Management, and 4. Problem Solving. All of those skills are also being addressed in the morning mindfulness sessions. If you would like more information about Second Step or Morning Mindfulness, please contact me. Let’s work together to prepare our students for success!
