Meet the Skill Scouts: 7 Habits That Help Kids Learn, Solve Problems, and Keep Trying

Every great adventure starts with a skill.

The Skill Scouts are a fun way to help students practice the habits that support learning at school, at home, and in life. Each character represents one habit successful learners use when they face challenges, solve problems, work with others, or try something new.

Students can color the Skill Scouts, draw themselves as a new scout, and name their own special learning power.
