Dependability

Dependability – the ability to be counted on and trusted.

Are you a dependable person?  Read the following traits of a dependable person and think about whether you can answer yes or no. You can do this silently . So here goes! Think yes or no.

  • I keep promises.
  • I do what I say I will do.
  • I arrive at school on time.
  • I do not need a reminder to get a job done
  • I can be counted on to have the materials needed to get jobs done.
  • I can work with others to see that things get done in our  classroom to make it a good place.
  • I finish what I start.
  • I am viewed as a person who keeps their word.

I hope you said yes to all of them. If you did, congratulations!  If not, just decide today that you will work hard and become a dependable person. I know you can change. It just takes a little perseverance.

Did you know that being reliable is another way to express that a person is dependable?  This week we are going to have fun being “Dependability Detectives”.  What that means is that when you spot someone being dependable you will write a very nice comment and tell what they were doing. I can’t wait to read your comments. One of the reasons J.H.House is such a special school is that it is full of dependable children! So detectives, get to work and have a great day!
