Place these cards on the desks of students who are displaying wise choices, perfect work or students who need to stop what they are doing and make a wiser choice. Students can even give each other a card if they see a classmate doing some great work. Students can write about what it means to make wise choices and people in their lives who make wise choices. You could be creative with these cards and place them around square tissue boxes. If you see an entire table making wise choices, you could put the "Look whoo is making wise choices" box on the table for all children to see. The cards also come in black and white images for your convenience. The writing prompts come in primary and secondary lined paper for you to be able to differentiate to your needs.

I designed this 5-page activity for my students to engage with during the Fall or at the start of the year, focusing on the Social Studies Citizenship unit. Students will read various scenarios and determine whether each one exemplifies good citizenship. This activity is perfect for reinforcing rules and character traits at the beginning of the year. I intend to use it as an independent task after a few days of instruction on citizenship. It can also serve as a graded assessment, quiz, or a follow-up activity after a mini-lesson on rules or citizenship. Be sure to check out my Good Citizen or Not sorting center, along with other citizenship and respect resources!

Mix up your Easter classroom routine with our Easter Social Problem Solving Activity, designed to nurture social and emotional growth in your students.

Swap out the usual holiday routine with these fun social problem-solving scenarios. They're the perfect way to add a touch of social-emotional learning to your Easter celebration, making it not just festive but also full of valuable lessons.

CASEL 5 Social-Emotional Competencies: Our scenarios are thoughtfully crafted to ignite discussions around the CASEL 5 social-emotional competencies – Self-Awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness, Relationship Skills, and Responsible Decision-Making.

What's Included

• 3 social problem-solving worksheets, each with 5 different Easter-related social situations
• both color and black and white versions

How it Works

1. Decide if you want students to work independently, with a partner, or in groups. Or have students work alone and then share answers in a class discussion.
2. Students read each situation, deciding whether the child in the scenario made a good or poor choice. This process encourages critical thinking and reflection on social behaviors.
3. For good choices, students explain why the decision was positive. For poor choices, students propose alternative ways to handle the situation, sparking meaningful discussions around social skills and empathy.

Sample Easter Scenarios

• Chris's Easter Cleaning: Chris helps clean the house before Easter dinner without complaining.

• Megan's Fit Over the Prize: Megan throws a fit when she doesn't win the bike from an egg at the hunt.

• Caleb's Egg Toss Outburst: Caleb gets upset and yells at his sister after she accidentally drops an egg during the Easter egg toss.
