Original PromptI want to do a small group lesson for 1-4 graders that is SEL based and has to do with spring
This learning resource is designed to help students explore their feelings, practice kindness, and reflect on personal growth, using the metaphor of spring and nature. The journal includes activities that encourage children to identify their emotions through 'blooming emotions,' where they select descriptive words for how they have felt recently. Another key activity asks them to illustrate a kind act they can perform for others, reinforcing the importance of kindness. Students also reflect on a new skill they have learned, think about the support they receive from others, and set personal goals for the remainder of the school year, all themed around growth and blooming like plants in spring.
