What does it mean to 'Flip Your Lid?'
Last month, we shared with you the 'Check Your Engine' model we are using with students. The next item we will be teaching them is about flipping your lid. This link will share with you information on the brain flipping its lid. Dr. Dan Siegel's information has been extremely helpful as we plan lesson for your children on how to control their anger responses. We hope you find it enjoyable.
