Show Your BEST by Being a LEADER

posted by Kristen Perrotti
Throughout the school year, CGS students have been learning about and adhering to the school’s BEST expectations. Students in Mrs. Perrotti’s social skills groups have been learning about the difference between acting as a leader vs. acting bossy. Students have been encouraged to think about their own behavior and language when interacting with peers in the classroom, small groups, playground, lunchroom, sports teams, and even home. Often times, students may think they are helping, when instead their actions and words come across as “bossy” to others. It is important to talk to students about how their behavior can be interpreted by others and come up with alternative ways of approaching the situation that is BEST for everyone.
