Center Elementary School

New month, new routines. Take 5 minutes tonight to look at your family’s calendar together so kids know what’s ahead.

🐊 Motivation hack: Start the week with, “You are capable. You are smart. You are kind.” Cheesy? Maybe. Effective? Absolutely.

Ask your child: “What’s something you did today that made you proud?” Then share your own answer.

New week, new start. Share a positive affirmation: “You are capable. You are smart. You are kind.”

Celebrate effort this week with a family walk, movie, or special dessert.

🔒 Quick drill: “Would you hand this info to a stranger?” If no, then it doesn’t belong online either.

Practice remembering important info: address, phone number, parents’ names.

Invite your child to help plan or cook a meal. Life skills = future confidence.

🌟 Ask your kid, “What’s one thing you’re proud of this week?” Then answer too. Spoiler: “Survived Monday” counts.

Do a “media check-in.” Who are your kids following? What apps are they using? Quiet awareness keeps them safe.
