Day 9

21st Century Skills! Very similar to the "coachability" thing I have preached for 7 years. It is basically the whole "are they good team players? Do they take directions? Do they take critique? Can they work with others?" A lot of kids don't have these skills anymore and have to be taught. LaShonda and I had a great idea for a service-learning activity to help her kids with the pre-consolidation process next year. I think one at my school would focus more on the transition from elementary to jr high. Of course, if the whispers of consolidation with West Lowndes are to be believed, who knows? Mr. Joblin's brochures activity was top notch. I am definitely going to use that one next year.
