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!

The Magical Yet book by Angela DiTerlizzi was a huge hit with my younger elementary students. We've been learning about Growth Mindset and dreaming about all of the things that we cannot do...yet... but want to work hard to accomplish someday! This follow up activity had my students' minds beaming with ideas and fun interactions of their future dreams and goals! It was so much fun to watch their eyes light up and think of alllllll the things they'd like to do someday. A few of my favorites were count to 100,000, drive a rocket, and learn to do a backflip!

This interactive SEL classroom lesson provides fun and engagement for the entire class, while reminding them that everyone (including Disney characters!) uses growth mindset and gratitude in their roles - just as we should do! This activity will have students using creative thinking skills, communication, growth mindset, and so much more! My students have loved this activity and ask to do it frequently (See Leadership Lessons from Disney lesson in my store as well!) I use Disney characters as most are familiar with many of the characters and it is fun to see their faces light up when they get it correct. One of the magical moments with this lesson is seeing how easily they connect with the Disney characters when reflecting afterwards. Everything you need for this lesson is ready to go upon download - easily editable and adjustable to best fit your needs or add new characters as well, with 9 ready to use characters + quotes included!
