Koenig's Social Studies Week of 8/12 - 8/16

Social Studies

We will start our “Leader in Me” unit.  In this unit, students will learn leadership and life skills to create a culture of student empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader.  

Last week, we learned about Habit 1, Be Proactive. This habit is talking about how to be proactive instead of reactive. This week, we will look at Habit 2, Begin with the End in mind.  This habit teaches us to make a plan before we just dive in to things.
