Next week’s Positivity Project (P2) character strength is humility. We encourage you to talk with your child about what this strength means and how they can practice it each day at home, at school, and in your community. Visit the P2 for Families webpage for helpful resources and conversation starters to support this week’s strength. You can also view our P2 Character Strength Calendar to stay up to date with what your child is learning through our P2 curriculum.
