Some days at school can be tough! Take a peek at these two stories that help us see social situations from another point of view.

“Carla’s Sandwich” Many of Carla’s classmates find her sandwiches “disgusting”. If your classmates said that a certain behavior of yours was “sick”, would you change it? Why or why not?

Tell about a time when you or someone you know was being made fun. How did that experience make you feel?

“Francine’s Tough Day” Sometimes, it is hard to tell the truth. In this game, you get to choose if Francine tells a lie or if she tells the truth.

Adapted Level 1: After the lesson, tell a friend or family member about a time when you had to make a tough choice to tell a lie or the truth Describe how it made you feel.

Adapted Level 2: Go through the interactive story on PBS kids, a parent may need to help click the correct buttons. Parents can next do a True or False activity with their child, stating facts and obvious lies about items or the state of their surroundings. If your child has a difficult time saying their answer they can use the yes/no cards.

Just like Francine’s Tough Day, solving number puzzles can be tough too! If you stick with these puzzles, you will find out how fun they can be.
