As the winter days wind down and the spring weather approaches, many come out of hibernation. The spring season is often a time for children to play outside, participate in outdoor sports, and just enjoy the feeling of being outside in the fresh air. However, during this warm and bright season, it can also be a time of anxiety for children. Children in the upper elementary and middle school grades typically take standardized testing, which is mandated by the state. The months of April and May can actually be quite daunting for some students, which is why this spring yoga sequence is such a great addition to children’s routine. In teaching students yoga poses and breathing techniques, not only can they learn something new but they can also learn techniques that can help ease their stress and anxiety, especially when it may come to test taking. 

The Spring Sequence is a 20 page PDF download which you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper. We recommend cutting out each card and taping/gluing on a 4x6 index card or card stock. For added durability, laminate each card. 

Includes:

• Printable yoga deck to learn 5 yoga poses
• Full-page spring sequence yoga poster
• Three spring crafts with printables to get creativity flowing
• Printable journal to reflect on your practice

Perfect for practicing anywhere! Use this deck at home, school, park, or when traveling!

Este libro de trabajo ha sido diseñado para que los más pequeños exploren la autoestima y los sentimientos.

Los niños con autoestima generalmente se sienten bien consigo mismos. Este libro apoya el desarrollo de la autoestima al alentar a los niños a ver las cosas buenas de sí mismos, sentirse orgullosos de lo que pueden hacer y sus logros, reconocer que los demás los quieren y los aceptan y aprenden a amarse y aceptarse a sí mismos incluso cuando cometen errores. .

Desarrollar la autoestima de los niños es vital porque cambia la visión del mundo del niño. La buena autoestima les da a los niños el valor y la resistencia para probar cosas nuevas, creer en sí mismos y aceptar cuando se cometen errores.

Este libro de trabajo no es el "ser todo y el fin de todo" cuando se trata de la autoestima. Este es simplemente un recurso complementario para iniciar las conversaciones sobre este tema. Es importante que quienes están dentro del sistema de apoyo al niño (padres y maestros) desempeñen un papel en el desarrollo de la autoestima del niño.

Many today suffer with a damaged sense of self. Some individuals have such profound self-esteem deficits that they have internalized the belief that they are bad and that their future is hopeless. The goal of enhancing self-esteem for these students is not an easy one, but it is an important component of any successful treatment program. This workbook has been developed to help students to develop the tools to help individuals focus on their strengths and abilities, promote feelings of self-worth, encourage a more optimistic attitude and install a hope for their future.

This 38 page workbook addresses important issues that are relevant in relation to increasing self-esteem, understanding feelings, bullying and anger management. This workbook is designed so that the child has an opportunity to reflect on who they are, including to gain further insights into self-esteem, feelings, bullying and anger management.

Some activities are also whole-class activities to encourage self-esteem and empowerment, encouraging all children to isolate and express the things that they like and admire in the others in a very fun way.

This workbook allows you to reflect and gain insight into who you are – Discovering and clarifying your values, identity and sense of belonging. We say “discover” or “clarify” because our values are already a part of us. We just need to dig a little and find them. Knowing and living your values is essentially a map on how to be more authentic (or more yourself).

Your personal values are like a roadmap to live your life by. The destination is your authentic expression. They will provide you with clarity and vision, as well as confidence to stay the distance. Knowing your values means that you can easily get back on track even if you stray off the path.

Everyone has personal values. By acknowledging and living your values you bring an awareness and rhythm to your life, a sense of inner peace and understanding. Aligning yourself with your values can also help you to live an authentic life.

By exploring and narrowing down your personal values through this workbook you are clarifying what is important to you and show a commitment to making those values a priority.

This mini-lesson explores the following:

-Personal Values are important – why?

-I know who I am (worksheet)

-What are values?

-Living an intentional life (core values list)

-Questions about your core values (reflective questions)

-What are your Core Values (worksheet)

-Your Personal Values in Action (worksheet)

-What shapes our values?

-Experiences shape values

-Generational Impacts interview activity (3-part activity)

-Your values Question Summary

-Living Intentionally – Setting Goals

-Creating your personal values statement (craft)
