In 2nd grade, your girls and I spoke about the Value of Patience.
They defined it as: " waiting" and shared many stories of all the times and ways they have waited. We all agreed that this is an essential life skill, and that all of us, children and adults, need to learn to wait.
I guided the girls with ways to "practice patience" by using their wonderful
brains: using their imagination, writing a story in their head, practicing their
math facts, working on their spelling words, reading, breathing, etc.
Ask your girls how they are practicing patience.
