8th Grade Social Emotional Learning PowerPoint Presentations (by price, low to high)

This lesson addresses testing anxiety with a focus on using appropriate strategies and coping skills to manage stress and anxiety before and during testing. That a certain amount of stress while testing is normal and helpful is also discussed and how to handle feeling overwhelmed when given a long/difficult test (like state testing).

The aim of the lesson is to give students the tools to feel prepared to manage the stress that may arise when preparing for or taking a test- working self-awareness and self-management.

The lesson includes a presentation (10 slides) and a presentation guide including suggestions for accompanying activities (3 pages).

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson emphasizes where students derive their sense of identity from and how to go about exploring their self-identity, with a no-prep activity to practice.

Older kids are capable of not just knowing characteristics about themselves, but starting to deepen their self-identity with understanding of why they are the person they are. Students will explore their self-identity while considering that they have social roles and influences that shape how they understand themselves.

If age appropriate, this can lead to discussion about family/community patterns. I find children often know their triggers and problem behaviors, but if they can identify why they have a trigger self-compassion can be applied and solutions may become more clear.

Ex. My older brother is in all honors classes and my parents compare me to him. This makes academic corrections and poor grades a big trigger for me because it reminds me of that feelings I get at home.

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson includes presentation notes (discussion points and questions slide-by-slide included) (2 pages) and slides to present (6 slides, including instructions to a no prep activity, creating an Identity Map).

This lesson teaches students about the value of thinking ahead before entering new/challenging social situations, walks through how to do so, and uses a worksheet for practice.

The aim of the lesson is to give students the tools to think ahead- working goal setting and self-management skills. The main takeaways from this lesson should be the value of learning about social norms, goal setting, planning ahead, and how to do these things. It is also stressed that while social norms may feel ambiguous they are most often specific and can be learned.

The lesson includes a presentation (10 slides), a worksheet (2 pages), and a presentation guide (3 pages).

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson provides a framework (including a step-by-step break downs and examples) for situations where disagreement arises. The lesson covers when it is productive to voice disagreement, when it is not, steps to handle both situations, and how to move past disagreement when it is not able to be resolved.

With middle and high school students I find this topic is relevant just about everyday in the classroom with peers and staff. I carefully made this lesson to cover disagreement neutrally, not framing it as universally good or bad, but dependent on context and delivery.

This lesson is a great chance to add in activities that promote self-advocacy and larger themes of pro-social communication. The lesson includes a presentation (10 slides), a worksheet (2 pages), and a presentation guide (1 page). With other free sources (which I discuss in the presentation guide) I made this lesson span over 4 days.

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson provides a framework (including a step-by-step break down) for decision making. A pivotal part of the framework is applying values to help you decide on the best choice for you. Values are explored, promoting self-awareness, and incorporated into decision making skills. The lesson also differentiates between consequential and inconsequential decisions to encourage thinking about what choices require more thought and energy.

As middle and high schoolers are headed toward bigger, more consequential decisions this lesson enables them to identify their values and emphasizes the role knowing your values plays in making choices that align with the life students want and the people students want to be.

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson includes presentation notes (discussion points and questions slide-by-slide included) (2 pages), slides to present (8 slides) , and a worksheet (1 page).

This lesson emphasizes identifying stress as a process that takes place in the brain and body, identifying when stress can be helpful (eustress), when stress becomes overwhelming (distress), and emphasizes the use of coping skills to mitigate the negative effects of stress.

I find older kids often know their preferred copings skills and have often already spent time with their helping adults exploring/practicing them. So, this lesson does NOT teach specific coping skills. Instead, it explains what is going on in the brain and body when stress is felt, how stress is natural and normal, and why use of coping skills is important to capitalize on stress when we need it. Teaching about stress as normal, and even positive, offers a validating and empowering approach to encouraging the use of positive coping skills.

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson includes presentation notes (discussion points and questions slide-by-slide included) (2 pages), slides to present (8 slides) , and a worksheet (1 page).

This lesson teaches about how coping skills work to improve our mental health when practiced. Positive vs. negative coping skills are covered, problem-focused vs. emotion-focused coping skills are distinguished, and how coping skills work to affect thoughts, feelings and actions are all broken down.

If middle and high school students have been in any SEL program before they likely have heard a lot about the importance of coping skills and been instructed to identify their own. So, this lesson aims to help students understand how coping skills affect their mental health to make informed choices when choosing and implementing them. Then, students choose a coping skill to focus on and make a project about. This aims to give students a chance to talk about coping skills using the knowledge provided, instead of passively taking in more information on the topic.

This lesson is a great chance to get students talking with each other about helpful coping skills! The lesson includes a presentation (7 slides), a worksheet (1 pages), and example project (1 page) and a presentation guide (4 pages).

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.

This lesson teaches about expression of feelings to others by breaking down positive and negative forms of expression, organizing positive expression into steps, encouraging taking responsibility for your own feelings, and teaching I-Statements.

Middle and high school students can begin to explore how they are responsible for managing their feelings through this topic. The aim of the lesson is to give students the tools to identify and use positive forms of expression and communication. This lesson ties together multiple CASEL skills including self-awareness, social awareness, and self-management.

An I-statement worksheet is included to allow practice of the skill and a no-prep expressing feelings activity is outlined.

The lesson includes a presentation (9 slides), a worksheet (2 pages), and a presentation guide (4 pages).

The slides and worksheet are simple to increase comprehension and suit middle through high school students.
