Resilient Family Groups

On Thursday, Saklan’s 1st – 8th grade students gathered with their family groups to discuss ways to be resilient, the February social emotional learning focus. After sharing what resilience means to each family group member and ways they hope to show resilience in the coming weeks, each group made a poster using flower cutouts noting things they are working towards accomplishing. Check out the posters in the school entryway!

Next, the families were on to showcasing their resilience through a series of challenges. First up was trying to get 1 – 3 ping pong balls into a cup using teamwork and a piece of string. Students enjoyed working together to find the best methods for success!

The second challenge was a game of Bam the Ram, which was also a ton of fun! Check out images of both challenges below.
