In reply to @bivey, @Stella_Pollard

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Jun 5 @ 10:14 PM EDT

A2 #resiliencechat For many of our students the break in structure fights against the academic, social gains made during the year.

Stella_Pollard Jun 5 @ 10:14 PM EDT

Not really talking to other adults... Gets kind of lonely for me at times. PLUS I cannot slow down. I'm used to speeding up! #resiliencechat

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Jun 5 @ 10:17 PM EDT

#Resiliencechat A true result, and over the years this culprit robs many of our children of rich resources that are provided to them.

In reply to @saratruebridge

Little kids can be a handful, but they can also remind you of joy to be found in simple things. I don't miss it, though. #resiliencechat

Love it! Shouldn't school be better than a summer off? #Resiliencechat Bring summer fun into school!

bivey Jun 5 @ 10:32 PM EDT

A4 Somewhere in all this is the question of what positives in a summer off could/should be integrated into school. #resiliencechat

A4 No. What I think they ought to do is change the school year. When it starts and when it ends Summer.. too hot to learn. #resiliencechat

ResiliencyGuy - Moderator Jun 5 @ 10:36 PM EDT

The support staff did get a bit tired as they wouldn't take time off unless told to - significant dedication issues! #resiliencechat

Play important at every age. We also need to teach children life is not about them but about self&others! Lives w purpose. #resiliencechat

I think play is one path to growth, even for older kids. Along with other activities. #resiliencechat
