Dear Parent or Guardian,
We are now studying the topic of social health, including family relationships. Since good communication is the cornerstone of any relationship, students begin by identifying and applying effective communication skills. Some questions your teen will consider as we discuss this topic are: How does verbal communication differ from nonverbal communication? How can I be an effective speaker and listener? How do members of a family nurture each other? How can I recognize negative peer pressure and deal with it? What are the benefits from abstaining from sexual activity, tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs?
To support and extend our classroom work, please set aside some time during the next few weeks to complete one or more of the following activities with your teen:
Sincerely,
Ms. Herring
Health Teacher

To support and extend our classroom work, please set aside some time during the next few weeks to complete one or more of the following activities with your teen:
- Role play good communication with your child. Choose an issue and have an effective communication, modeling good speaking and listening skills.
- Members of families usually play several different roles. Identify the roles each of you has within the family. Discuss how each of you fulfills that role. Discuss other families you know well. Do the roles those family members play differ from those in your family?
Sincerely,
Ms. Herring
Health Teacher
