🦅 PETERSBURG CONFIDENT CHALLENGE — DAY 4: DO IT BY MYSELF!
This week, Stedman students are learning about being CONFIDENT, and we’re challenging all of Petersburg to join us!
TODAY’S CHALLENGE: Give a Stedman Eagle the space to complete a task completely on their own. Try encouraging independent steps like:
■ Ordering their own food or speaking for themselves at a store or restaurant.
■ Helping carry groceries, put items away, or complete a household chore independently.
■ Asking a community member a question or requesting help on their own.
■ Taking responsibility for their belongings while out and about.
■ Helping a younger sibling, neighbor, or family member without being asked.
Believing 'I can do things by myself' builds the foundation for lifelong independence and pride.

🦅 PETERSBURG CONFIDENT CHALLENGE — DAY 3: I CAN DO IT!
This week, Stedman students are learning about being CONFIDENT, and we’re challenging all of Petersburg to join us!
TODAY’S CHALLENGE: Celebrate independence and hard work today. When an Stedman Eagle encounters a tough task, help them use positive self-talk. Try:
■ Encouraging them to try a new activity, sport, hobby, or community event—even if it feels hard.
■ Giving them time to solve a problem before stepping in to help.
■ Celebrating their effort with: “You stuck with it!” or “Look what you figured out on your own!”
When we change our words to 'I can do it,' our mindset changes too!

This week, Stedman students are learning about being CONFIDENT, and we’re challenging all of Petersburg to join us!
TODAY’S CHALLENGE: Encourage a student to step up to a new challenge, even if it feels a little scary. Try encouraging them with:
■ “It’s okay to feel nervous, let’s try it anyway!”
■ “I believe you can handle this new challenge.”
■ “Trying something new helps our brains grow stronger.”
True confidence isn't about never being afraid, it is about taking that step even when things feel uncertain.

■ “How are you going to show your best self today?”
Confidence grows when we realize we have the power to direct our own learning and actions.
