Wow. I've been so busy creating that I forgot sharing (or maybe it's playing around with my new Erin Condren planner) - the last Fresh on Friday was May 15th and I've made 5 new things since then! So here goes...

I have two great literacy-based lessons: Elmer and Kaulu's Brother. You can read all about how to connect literacy to your counseling lessons here. I love both of these stories and they connect to two of my favorite lessons. In Elmer, we learn about accepting differences both in others and in yourself. In Kaulu's brother, we follow Kaulu as he overcomes many obstacles to save his brother. This is an old Oahu story and the kids love the giant dog, enormous shark, and great waves.
 | Somehow, no matter how hard I try to shake it (OK not really, I'm a data nerd), I always seem to be in charge of RTI/MTSS/SST or whatever you might call it in your area. I think this is a huge advocacy piece for school counselors. If we help to better the process of academic and behavioral intervention in our schools, we are doing what's best for children. With this Professional Development PowerPoint, you will cover the basics of Tier I vs Tier 2 Interventions with your staff. The presentation explores the concepts of RTI and what exactly an intervention is. Ends with an activity exploring two great intervention resources online. This is a good beginning of the year presentation. It is fully editable so you can change the language to match your district if needed. |

With my last two items, you get 4 lessons to use with your students. The first, is the K-2 Counselor introduction. This uses pictures to introduce the role of the school counselor and ends with learning calm down strategies. I like to incorporate a skill in each and every lesson. If I include a calm down component to my first lesson, I am able to reference those strategies all year long. This lesson includes lots of cute graphics and pictures- I think it's really fun!
In the K-2 Conflict Resolution pack, you get three lessons all about learning tone of voice, perspective taking, and I Feel statements. You may have seen my Fairy Tale I Feel Statements in yesterday's post or on Instagram. These are fun lessons that include important skills while still being fun. There are no worksheets- just role plays, group work, and active learning!
Have fun and as always, these will be free til Monday! If you download, please (pretty please) leave feedback on TPT.
