Are you looking for an easy way to improve student behaviors? This is a fun, easy, print and go activity.

I use the secret missions with my students. Simply print the packet, cut out, and post the missions in your room (be sure to cover each mission with a "secret mission" card".

Then the magic begins. Each morning during your morning meeting time chose a kiddo to uncover a mission. Discuss the mission, the importance of it, what it looks like. I generally have a secret task force who also watches for the behaviors. Then when your children are "caught" they earn a party point/tally/ball (whatever reinforcer you use) for your class. Currently my kids are working to earn hot chocolate with toppings.

I hope this is something fun for you and your kiddos. Please be sure to follow me for additional resources and updates!

An interactive Growth Mindset main activity + more included! Ideas provided for multiple grade levels to maximize your use! This activity puts an overall focus on introducing or better understanding growth mindset and what it sounds like, while also providing opportunity to turn it up a notch and have students come up with their own growth mindset statements and work toward building that skill. Interactive, engaging, and makes an impact! It's a win, win, win for classrooms!! Colored and black and white copies available. Everything you need for a full lesson provided!

A "Pocket" Full of Kindness - An SEL Activity that focuses on kindness and the idea that you can take it with you wherever you go and "pull it right out of your back pocket" as the saying goes!! This activity is great for younger elementary students who are getting an introduction to all things kindness and all of the different ways that they can show kindness to others! For this activity, you will need string and scissor to help make it the most successful! My students LOVED being able to put their very own pocket together! I love the hands-on lessons as much as they do!

Know Your Impact Activity (High School)

"Building" a safe, healthy, and happy learning environment starts with the people that we share it with! In this activity, students take on the opportunity of working effectively with others, thinking creatively, communicating respectfully, and cooperation with others all built into one activity! This is a blast for the whole class - all while focusing on so many important SEL skills. This activity includes minimal preparation yet all the benefits of so many social emotional learning skills to build (pun intended!) My students did not want this activity to end!!

Leadership Activity - "Jumping Ships!" (Upper Elementary)

Order up! This adorable activity puts a focus on gratitude and thankfulness - perfect for the fall season! "Spice" it up and instruct students to decorate their "personalized order" anyway that they'd like. You could do so much with this activity - incorporate life skills by asking students to order their own drink, intertwine creativity by asking them to incorporate their own special ingredients into their drink, and then, of course, "fill it up" with all of the things that they are grateful and thankful for! So sweet and fun! This would also make a cute bulletin board as well.

Community building activities come in handy at the start of the year... and beyond! This activity focuses on not only working together and building community, but also allows students opportunity to practice active listening skills with a focus on listening to understand and absorb information rather than listening to respond. This activity is great for the basics of get to know you and team building questions, but could also be used to answer more academic-based questions as well. It is fun, interactive, and engaging, which offers a fun change of pace to the classroom!

Wanting to help your students find ways to show more kindness toward one another? This activity is a great interactive classroom lesson that does just that! With an emphasis on finding the good in every situation and every person, we not only discussed it but we DID IT! It not only boosts self-esteem, but helps students express kindness and gratitude toward others - a win, win! Everything included for your next classroom lesson. Seasonal print-outs to implement this activity year round!

"Kind or Trash" gives a fun new outlook on discussing kind vs unkind actions for younger elementary students. While the discussion is great, this activity also gets them up and moving and looking forward to their turn! This activity had my classes engaged through the entire lesson and it created great conversation as well! The basket and recycling bin is a great visual for students as they are recognizing kind vs unkind actions.

"Caught Ya Being Respectful" is a fun and engaging activity that not only gets students talking about being respectful and what that looks like, but it also encourages them to make connections of people (that they know and often admire!) that are showing respect around them as well! This activity includes everything needed for your next classroom lesson on respect, including two worksheets (Wanted Poster and Bonus Activity!) as well as different ideas that you can do with the finished products! My students LOVED this and it was fun for our teachers to see the outcome as well. We got a lot of learning and laughs out of this activity!

Practice GRATITUDE along with so much more with this activity - writing, spelling, organization, healthy competition, creativity, and much more! This activity is ready to use for whatever your students may benefit from most! Set a timer and see who can list the most items, use it as a follow up activity after introducing gratitude, practice writing and spelling all of the things that mean the most to your students! Both color and black and white version included for easy printing! Once completed, hang up in your classroom, in lockers, or keep in their desks for reflection and gratitude reminders throughout the season OR do a follow up list toward the end of the season and see if their lists grow as they start to be more intentional on identifying things to be grateful for!!

Are your students struggling to be respectful during a classroom lesson - talking, blurting, and other things going on instead of listening respectfully? This lesson puts the students right in those shoes and gives them a glimpse into what that can be like. Not only is it engaging (and kind of silly) but impactful and real. Everything needed for your next leadership lesson is included in the download!

Kindness Activity - The Impact of our Words (Middle School)

The Impact of our Words (High School)

If you are looking for a fun, engaging, and interactive activity for your elementary students - this is for you!! This activity gets students working together, up and moving around, while they also practice perseverance, self-control, patience, and so much more! Add academic questions to each of the "snowballs" that they must answer to finish the race and watch all of the learning happen! So. Much. Fun!

Bring having a growth mindset and positive perspective to life with this activity! It is fun for the whole class and they get a great reminder to take with them! This activity comes set with everything you need to discuss and demonstrate having a growth mindset, perspective taking, and holding a positive point of view. It also pairs nicely with the short story (Rosie's Glasses), but can be used as a stand alone activity as well!

Talk about "which view would you choose" and then have students color away! Depending on the amount of time you have, have students cut out their glasses and glue the rectangles together, or use it as a fun take home follow up activity!
