Problem:
Assume for the moment that we have chosen to launch an after-school program for elementary school students and that we wish to create the best possible environment. A few of the parents have been very transparent about the issues their kids are facing, such as bullying, low "self-esteem, and trouble making friends." The kids who will probably be enrolled seem to represent all five statuses: popular, average, rejected, ignored, and contentious.
Kindly determine how we can best support the healthy growth of these kids while ensuring they all have the greatest experience possible in our facility.
Please share an idea for our program related to one of the following: self-esteem, social skills, and moral development in middle childhood (the three aspects are interconnected, of course, but highlight two of them separately). Indicate that your suggestion or action would promote moral growth, social skills, or self-esteem, and be as detailed as you can.
