You can use the pictures included to talk about some problems that may come up at school, and how they can solve them. We then make an anchor chart and decide which of the problems you can solve on your own and which you may need an adult to help you with. Last, the students think of a problem and how they can solve it. They use the attached page to draw and write about what they’ve learned.
