Less than $5 6th Grade School Counseling Lesson (by price, low to high)

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!

"Building" a safe, healthy, and happy learning environment starts with the people that we share it with!

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!!

Included in this Google Drive resource, you are given a ready-to-use slide show which holds THREE self-confidence activities that are interactive and fun for several ages and grade levels! These activities will have your students laughing, being creative, and being okay with just being themselves. Reflection questions are included. Other items needed: categories to choose from (ideas related to self-esteem included in the notes section) and a dollar bill for the 3rd included activity. Little prep needed to find success with these SEL lessons and activities! Enjoy.

"So You Think You Know Directions?!" is an absolute hit for my students! Prepare for a fun, engaging, and new favorite classroom activity for all! This activity focuses on multiple social emotional learning topics - attentive listening, awareness, team building, perseverance, respectful communication, and SO much more ALL in ONE activity! This digital download comes with everything you need for your next classroom lesson - detailed instructions, ready-to-print cards, and a guide for the teacher! Your students will all work together to complete one goal - get from person #1 to the last person, without skipping anyone in between! Each card comes with a different task that each student will be asked to complete. The cards must be completed in order, but you are only able to know what is on your card and no one else's and participants aren't able to talk (cue the attentiveness!) Didn't quite get it the first time... or the second... maybe it took a third try? No worries... cue the perseverance and respectful communication! A bonus to increase engagement - many of the cards include a task that is a bit silly (why not throw in fun ways to build confidence into this lesson, too?!) This lesson is truly a favorite for all with so many great SEL topics built in.

Kindness Activity - The Impact of Our Words (Upper Elementary/Middle School)

Kindness "Hot Potato" (Multiple lessons for multiple grade levels included!)

Creative Perseverance + Facing Challenges (Upper Elementary/Middle School)

The Magical Yet: Growth Mindset Activity (Lower Elementary)

Creating a positive environment for students is a top priority, but it can be difficult when individuals lack an awareness of the impact of their words towards others, especially when it does not affect them in the same way. This activity brings awareness and a better understanding, while also increasing empathy and care toward others. I also like to remind students that we cannot control what other people chose to say and do, though we can take time to educate and create awareness, especially when something they are saying or doing is impacting us. This lesson can be customized to fit whatever statements would be most beneficial in recognizing within your school.

In this product, students can complete coping with anxiety activities that include the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Activity where they will draw things they see, touch, hear, smell, and taste. Students can also complete breathing activities - cloud breathing, triangle, square, star, and dragon breathing activity. Students will follow the directions to inhale, exhale, and hold their breath.
