Many of our students are working on self-control. Impulse control is demanded at an early age for children, and it is important to note that the area of the brain that controls impulses doesn't fully develop until mid-20's----practice is important for our students who are still learning!
Some familiar language that Mrs. Januchowski uses with her students is:
1. Stop (red light)
2. Think (yellow light)
3. Go (green light)
Feel free to use this language with your children to practice self-control at home...and yes, I use the words "self-control" with my students.
