Today, Tamara and Kristin were both absent. The Owls got to spend time with Emma, one of AFS's substitute teachers. We discussed at morning meeting how both Tamara and Kristin were sick, so we all agreed to become "assistants to help make the day great". We talked a little about what that would mean: first time listening, being kind to friends, etc... Indeed, though this change in routine created some challenges, the Owls adapted and had a great day. Throughout the day, words like, "You won! Congratulations!" could be heard. The ability to self-regulate and accept this additional responsibility shows how mature and wonderful our Owl friends are constantly becoming.
