I am an elementary school counselor. My goal is to reach every student and promote positive social and emotional growth while incorporating our Cree Culture!
May Kindness Challenge
CBMES will be having a May Kindness Challenge for each classroom.The school bulletin boards will be decorated with the theme I will also give a prize to each class that completes a kindness project. It can be a collage, class book, posters, banners, murals, paintings, or anything else the teachers/students can come up with. We will also be doing acts of kindness tickets. Every time a student shows kindness in some way, their name will be entered for a weekly draw.
“In a world where you can be anything, be KIND”
We use The Zones of Regulation to help the students express what they are feeling and how to control their emotions.
The 7 Habits of Happy Children, and Stephen Covey's book, The Leader in Me, inspire a classroom positive psychology happiness learning center. The habits speak to emotions, strengths, friendships, meaning, and accomplishment. The students will be focusing on what a positive leader is and how a leader behaves in the classroom, playground, on the bus and in the community. I will also be incorporating the Tipi teachings into this program as well.
