Color. Learn. Grow. Together.
Partin PTA is excited to support our school’s Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum with a fun, yearlong coloring challenge that helps our All Stars build important life skills—one page at a time!
Throughout the school year, Partin students are learning important social-emotional and life skills through the Overcoming Obstacles curriculum. These lessons focus on skills like cooperation, responsibility, respect, integrity, kindness, perseverance, conflict resolution and more.
Our PTA Social-Emotional Learning Challenge gives families a simple way to continue those lessons at home, while giving students a fun way to show what they’ve learned.

See that QR code on your child’s coloring sheet? You’re in the right place!
Each month, this page will help families better understand the featured SEL skill and provide easy ideas for continuing the conversation at home.
You don’t need a lesson plan or special materials. These skills can be practiced during dinner, in the car, while playing a game, doing chores, working through a disagreement, or simply talking about your child’s day.
The goal isn’t perfection. It’s giving our children opportunities to practice, grow and keep trying.

This challenge is about much more than coloring.
By connecting what students are learning at school with conversations and experiences at home, we can help our children grow into caring, responsible and resilient community members.
And along the way, we’ll fill Partin with artwork showing just how much our All Stars are learning and growing.
All Stars: Color your page, write your name AND teacher’s name, and drop it in the PTA Coloring Challenge Box in the front office!

🤝 September’s SEL Theme: COOPERATION
🤝 September’s SEL Theme: COOPERATION
What is cooperation?
What is cooperation?
Cooperation means listening, sharing ideas, taking turns, helping one another and working together toward a common goal.
Learning to cooperate helps children build stronger relationships, become better teammates, solve problems together and understand that everyone can contribute something valuable.
💬 Talk About It at Home
💬 Talk About It at Home
Try working some of these questions naturally into your conversations:
What makes someone a good teammate?
When did you work together with someone today?
How does it feel when someone really listens to your ideas?
What can you do when you and someone else have different ideas?
What is something that’s easier when we work together?
There aren’t necessarily right or wrong answers. The goal is simply to get kids talking and thinking about cooperation.
