The Leader in Me - Habit 1: Be Proactive


Be Proactive - The Little Engine That Could

To help my kindergarten students begin to understand Habit 1 - Be Proactive we read The Little Engine That Could.  We had already discussed the many things that the students are already experts at doing.  We also have come to the conclusion that the students are at school to learn more!  Learning new things can be hard and we used this book to begin a discussion about believing in yourself and not giving up.  We also made these little engines to help us remember our mantra "I think I can!"

I got the pattern from DLTK's Crafts for Kids.  The I Think I Can poster can be ordered from Melissa Taylor's Luvocracy.com website.
