Overview
By the second semester of the second grade, students should be able to identify a situation where a decision is being made, identify the choice options involved, as well as the ability to develop their own choice options for a given situation (choice context). Students should also be able to define the positive and negative characteristics or results of a particular choice option. During the 2b/3a semesters, students will extend their knowledge of choice and to the concept of consequences, the positive (+) and negative (-) short-term or immediate results of each choice option.
