PROCEDURES

• Share the RHETT CONNECTION for the week: When she was in high school, Rhett’s big sister Breanna (click here for picture), would often take Rhett into her room when she got home from school and have him sit with her as she did her homework. She would read stories to him, they would listen to music together and she would talk to him about her friends. Rhett would laugh and listen to her and loved that time with his big sister. Rhett’s big brother, Brandon (click here for picture), loved to lay on the floor with him and watch TV or listen to music.
• Complete other activities as agreed upon with coach for the session.
• Hand out weekly Incentive Awards. Decide with coach ahead of time reason for giving award to child: listening, working hard, etc.

Confirm with coach which day(s) you will be there the following week.
