In The Kid Connection elementary school students learn social emotional skills that support their meaningful participation in the classroom, on the playground, and in their lives outside of school. During the school dismissal period Miss Kitty, our Kid Connection Specialist, will be offering a series of brief, 5-minute videos for our students to learn and practice social emotional skills at home.

Help your child to identify problem situations. “When ______ happens, that is a problem.”
Model Problem Solving language: e.g., “Let’s work together to figure out how to deal with this problem.” “We can come up with a solution to this problem.” “We can solve this problem.”
Brainstorm problem solutions with your child. Have your child choose a solution and follow up with it.
Debrief with your child. Is the problem solved? Would you handle it differently next time?
