This interactive SEL Community Building + Cooperation activity is based on the famous question, "If you were stranded on a desert island..." however, it comes with a small twist! Students will answer get to know you questions that will then turn into their list of items that they can potentially bring on board on their island adventure. The fun part is that they do not know that their answers to the questions are building their lists for the island. Once questions are answered and lists are created, they are put into teams to decide which items must come and which will stay behind! If time allows, the activity also comes with plot twist scenarios that add a little more fun to the mix! This digital download includes everything you need and is ready for your next fun lesson. Bring some paper along for students to utilize and you're all set.

"Hit Me With Your Best Meme" is an activity that is fun for the entire class! This activity provides 80 statements cards to be used to discuss different experiences that students might face throughout their day to day lives as students in a school building. They are relatable yet lighthearted and create great conversation! This is a fun way to get students talking about feelings, facial expressions, and communication and is the perfect way to reach those older middle and high school students, too! Everything you need for the activity is ready for you upon download!

What's included in the purchase? This activity includes 80 statement cards and 100+ memes to be used during the activity. There is some prep needed in cutting out each card used during the activity. The download also includes instructions on 3 different ways that the activity can be used in your classroom!

This "Think Before You Speak" activity puts a focus on taking time to reflect and think before speaking to others. In this interactive activity, students are put into teams, where they are helping one another guess a specific word while also avoiding the guess of another word. Students must focus and carefully select the words in which they are using to be helpful - a social skill that we all utilize daily (even if we do not realize it!) This activity is a great resource to bring this skill to life and take time to reflect and connect - while having a little fun in doing so! Everything you need for this activity is included in the digital download, including reflection discussion questions, so once you purchase, you are ready for your next classroom lesson! *A note is included on materials that may be helpful for the activity, but are not necessary when fully utilizing the activity!*

Introducing the School Counselor - The Game Show is an interactive "game show" like activity where students are able to team up, make choices on categories and point values, answer questions, learn more about the school counseling role - all while having a blast doing so! This digital download purchase provides you with everything you need for a successful classroom lesson, though it may be helpful to bring a whiteboard and dry eraser marker for the "Sketch It" category. A great way to introduce yourself to students or review your role at the start of the school year or throughout. 25 questions provided. Edit: A "back to category slide" feature has been added to easily go back to the slide with all category listings. Enjoy!

If you're ready to add a little flare to your next classroom lesson, this might be the one for you! The Case of Respectfully Problem Solving brings a whole new level to working together, creative thinking and perspective shifting, as well as small group problem solving, listening, and working together! It is a whole lot of social-emotional learning in one fun activity! This digit download includes 12 pages with everything you need and specific instructions on just how to use it! There are a whole lot of teachable and "ah-ha" moments packed into one activity.

Make it even more fun and package their materials in a "Top Secret" Folder! My students loved being able to work together on this activity, but also enjoyed the individual creative thinking that came with it. It was a blast for all! If you are looking to reduce your paper usage, this is a great activity where you could print and laminate some of the activity sheets to use at a later time as well - only printing what you need to re-use (the sheets that students will write on!) Easy prep - lots of fun - many skills practiced!

A full MONTH of communication activities ready to go! Do your students love interactive and hands-on learning experiences that are also engaging and fun? This digital download provides FOUR ready to use lessons that focus on communication and working respectfully with others, while also working through challenges, with a hint of perseverance all wrapped into four consecutive lessons! The lessons provided can be used as solo activities or for consecutive weeks, as they build off of one another nicely and provide a continuation of both review of the previous activity while also creating more of a challenge with each "level up" to continue skill building. My students LOVED each of these activities and I was able to adjust and use my creativity to use this with multiple grade levels! We had a blast and were able to practice our communication skills in fun and interactive ways. Instructions included on each slide for all four activities. Enjoy!!

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!

If you are looking for a fun and interactive way for your students to not only discuss perseverance and what facing challenges looks like, but also practice the skill in a fun and engaging way, then this might be a classroom activity for you! Perseverance is one of those skills that is truly mastered when they are able to practice is "on the spot" and build skills in the moment. This activity provides a safe and comfortable way to do just that, while creating both fun scenarios and more realistic scenarios that they may face in their day to day lives. This activity includes TWO separate classroom lessons (and the foundation of a great writing activity, too!), a list of random items that you could use in your classroom, and two pages of scenario cards. Use real life objects OR print out the clip art pictures included in the digital download. Everything needed for your next engaging classroom lesson - enjoy!!
