Our A.I focus for this week is 'Problem Solving'. We decided that the keys to being a great P.S are:
- Think sensibly before you act on the problem,
- Ask others for help,
- Think of some solutions,
- Make a decision and act on it!
A thought provoking question for parents (myself included) is to reflect on how often we solve the problems FOR our children. I usually find it faster and easier to solve my daughters problems rather than take the time to train her to do this herself!
Qnited Kingdom is going to strive to be better problem solvers! It should make us better 'Independent learners'
