[quote=Anonymous]You should be asking what the school is doing to teach problem solving to these kids. The child who attacked obviously is lacking in problem-solving strategies. I feel this is one major deficit in MCPS--so much pressure on academics that teachers take NO time to teach social problem-solving. Counselors have minimal time so they don't do much of it either. They should also be addressing social skills in general, e.g. how do you make a friend? how do you read social cues/non-verbal cues to know when to proceed and when to back off? I hope that Starr's new call for social emotional learning will address this major gap in a well-rounded education.[/quote]
