Mrs. Doneghy's Counseling Connection |
2/23/2019 march counselingDuring the month of March, K and 1 students will complete the final lessons in our social/emotional unit.. As a fun ending to this unit, they will make "calming bottles". These bottles consist of water, clear, non-toxic glue, and glitter/beads and are great for a quick break to cool down when students are feeling strong emotions. When shaken, the glitter and/or beads in the bottle slowly float to the bottom. Students will learn to take deep breaths as they watch the motion in the bottles.
2/1/2019 February counseling lessonsThis month, students in grades K and 1 will continue their social/emotional unit with a lesson on self-control. Students will read Even Superheroes Have Bad Days and discuss ways to control their behavior when they feel strong emotions. They will also receive their own take-home booklet containing coping strategies.
