The students continued to set their social and emotional expectations for the 2011-2012 school year. They got an opportunity to re-write them and re-think them. Most of the students kept their original goals and they expanded on them. They had an opportunity to operationally define their concepts. If they indicated "get along with friends" they were to elaborate on them with such information as when, where, how...
The next step is for the students to generate symbolic images for their goals. Today, they got a brief introduction to symbols. They also began the first part of the audio story "The Little Prince". The book emphasized the use of symbols with such characters as the Prince's Flower, The Business Man, The Lamp Lighter and the King.
Their next task is to generate symbols for the expectations they have for the year.
