- Third graders in Amber Yost’s class at Sibley Elementary have been learning about being respectful to others through their Second Step social emotional lessons. Students participated in hearing a heartfelt message from the book, “Our Class is a Family” and creating a self portrait. The message included respecting others by building a sense of community within their classroom, creating a place where they can feel safe, included and cared for. Students learn that their classroom is a place where it’s safe to be themselves, it’s OK to make mistakes, and it’s important to be a friend to others. Provided
