Family Conversations and Portrait of a Graduate (POG) Skills

Consider telling your child when they are demonstrating a skill at home or in a social setting.  

  • During soccer practice this morning, when you missed the goal you didn’t give up and kept trying hard to get the ball back to score. (Goal-directed and resilient)
  • When you were playing with your sister, you were being kind to her by sharing your toys and letting her choose a game to play. (Collaborator)

Share examples of how you were a [communicator, collaborator, etc.] during your day or within your job.  Provide specific details and explain how using these skills helped you. (e.g., I was a collaborator at work today when I ____.  This was helpful because____.)
