This is a great visual to help kids understand what’s happening in their minds so they can practice tackling situations that bring about frustration and anger.
Follow along for lots of resources and ideas. “Social emotional learning today as an investment in child’s tomorrow!
@mrsjacobsclass5@teacher2teacher It is hard! There are great books out there to help introduce big concepts to kids in a way that connects with their age group. We do a lower school assembly on perseverance and we use books and role playing. And then we keep up the conversation all year long. #T2Tchat
@WCOE_MSUBullard@teacher2teacher It really works! If you know a child is acting from a place of control, you can change the way you manage their behavior. #T2Tchat
@WCOE_MSUBullard@teacher2teacher A1. You literally ask why 5 times to get to the root of the behavior. It helps you to peel back the layers and discover what is really driving the behavior. Control seeking? attention seeking? Anger? It gets you to address the actual problem rather than the symptom. #T2Tchat
@teacher2teacher A7. To ALL my fellow teachers! You Matter to every single student and Every. Single. Day you made a difference. That's an amazing feeling to take into summer. Enjoy! #T2Tchat
@teacher2teacher A6. Prioritize yourself. Disconnect. Bask in the sunshine and celebrate all your accomplishments as new teacher because you did so much and some of it you may not even realize....yet #T2Tchat
@teacher2teacher A5. My favorite: "the compliment chair” K thru 8 love it! They sit in a chair and students write one word behind them to describe them.I take a picture of them with all the compliments and frame it for each student with the title “You..Through the Eyes of Your Friends” #T2Tchat
@DrRandlebhz@teacher2teacher A4. It's so important for them to see for themselves how they have grown. The looks on their faces can be priceless. They amaze themselves! #T2Tchat
@Toups_J@teacher2teacher A3. This is very true, which is why I'm smiling ear to ear in May! I love learning and growing in ways that I never imagined. #T2Tchat
