Dear NAC Elementary Families,
During the month of February, we will be learning about Habit #5: Seek first to understand, then to be understood. This habit is about listening before you speak. Here are the main points that you can discuss with your child:
● I listen to others without interrupting.
● I raise my hand and wait to be called on instead of blurting out.
● I try to understand how other people are feeling.
