Staying Healthy Mentally and Physically this winter:

Studies show students who are healthy perform better in the classroom and cope better socially and emotionally. Over the Holidays encourage your child to eat a balanced diet, get plenty of sleep, stay active and drink lots of water!  Here are some tips from the CDC.gov on how you as a parent can help your child stay socially and emotionally healthy this school year.

• Healthy students are better learners. 

• Make communication with school a two-way street. Read school newsletters and attend parent-teacher-student conferences to learn what is going on at school. Communicate regularly through emails, phone calls, or meetings to discuss your child’s grades, behavior, and accomplishments. 

• Implement simple SEL strategies at home such as:

  • Take time to talk to your child, be an active listener, and acknowledge their feelings to model empathy.

  • Focus on your child’s strengths before talking about things they can do to improve their confidence.

  • Children learn what they see. Model positive coping skills to identify and manage stressful situations. For example, going for a walk or practicing deep breathing exercises can help.
