📚Book Review!📚A Bad Case of Tattle 👅Tongu

📚Book Review!📚A Bad Case of Tattle 👅Tongue by @juliacook is a great addition to your classroom library or counseling office. Josh is often called “Josh the Tattler” because he tattles too much. It often makes other classmates not want to be around him. His mom tells him he better stop tattling or he will get tattle tongue. Josh does not want to get tattle tongue, so the next day at school when he overhears someone planning to bully a classmate later, he does not tell anyone. That night, he wakes up to see his tongue is long, yellow and covered in purple spots. On top of that, it's itchy and scratchy. He has a bad case of Tattle Tongue! He’s confused because he did not tattle, but the Tattle Prince visits him and explains that that would not have been tattling, it would have been giving a warning because someone was in danger. The tattle prince explains the rules of tattling:⁣
⁣
Rule 1: Be a danger ranger.⁣
⁣
Rule 2: Be a problem solver.⁣
⁣
Rule 3: Now or Later?⁣
⁣
Rule 4: Mind your own beeswax.⁣
⁣
With practice, Josh learns the difference between tattling and telling. He also loses the tattle tongue.⁣
⁣
It is such a creative way to explain tattling that will appeal to kids. The tattling rules are simple and explained well. I love how at the end it's revealed that the teacher is the Tattle Prince. This book is my go-to book on tattling.⁣

📚Book Review📚This Is How We Do It, by Matt L

📚Book Review📚This Is How We Do It, by Matt Lamothe is a great addition to your classroom or counseling library! Our world is full of fascinating and beautiful cultures. Learning about different cultures is both fun and interesting. This book highlights that we may be different, but we have more in common than we think. ⁣
⁣
🌟In This Is How We Do It, we meet seven children from countries around the world like Uganda, Japan, and Peru. Throughout the book, we see the houses that these children live in, what they wear to school, and what they eat for breakfast. Along the way, we learn about different cities, customs, and traditions. ⁣
⁣
If you’re looking for a way to pique your students’ interest in different cultures, This Is How We Do It is a must-have for your classroom library. The seven children’s stories open the door to great discussions about different cultures. This book would also be perfect for introducing cultural research projects for upper elementary students. Some of your students may have similar experiences or backgrounds as the children in the story, allowing them to see themselves in the story.⁣

Students who are able to regulate and control thei

Students who are able to regulate and control their emotions and behavior have better interactions with their peers and higher academic achievement. Students use self-control every day in school when they are sitting still, waiting in line, and taking turns. Self-control is a complex skill that develops over time and can be encouraged in the classroom in many ways.⁣
⁣
Here are some of my tried and true tips and ideas for teaching self-control in the school setting:⁣
🔵Model and Praise.⁣
🟢Deep breathing and yoga.⁣
🟣Morning Meeting check-in⁣
🟡Calm Down kits⁣
🔵Class activities and games.⁣
🟢Using videos and read alouds.⁣
⁣

Can you guess what I'm up to this weekend? 🏕Camping! (well Glamping in an RV). This is one of my favorite activities to do in my success skills group because of the camping theme and it discusses motivation. ⁣
What causes low motivation in school children? Different children have different reasons for low drive regarding schoolwork and other activities. These include fear of failure, low self-esteem, belief or feelings that the content has no personal meaning for them, or previous experiences of failure. This activity focuses on teaching kids to recognize what motivates them and de-motivates them by climbing their🗻 motivation mountain!⁣

Searching for 📚books that teach Cooperation? 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 I have put together a list of my favorite ones, plus reviews on the details of each book. I love using books to teach topics because they are the gateway for opening up discussions in the learning environment. Whether you are a teacher, counselor, or parent using books to help illustrate a topic you want to teach is a great way for kids to learn. As you are reading the book, ask engaging questions like: Why did you think the character did that? How do you think they felt when that happened? Questions like this help develop comprehension and empathy.⁣

GROW 🌷through what you are GO through. It's hard to see when you are going through tough times that there will be something positive resulting in this negative experience. The important thing to remember is that you are going to get through it, and you will come out on the other side having learned something. Helping you to grow and be that much stronger and wiser 🌸⁣

❤Small group counseling❤is one of my favorite

❤Small group counseling❤is one of my favorite parts of being a School Counselor. I know it can feel like a daunting task in the beginning. The hardest part is the prep before you even start meeting with kids. It can often deter Counselors from doing group counseling, and instead, see students individually. However, when you are in a big school and/or have a large caseload, group counseling can actually make your life so much easier. It is the best way to reach kids on the topics that they need the most and it still be more direct attention than class lessons provide. I will break down the steps that I use to start my groups, hopefully, it will help you to see that groups are within their reach and totally possible. It is worth it, start prepping your groups today!⁣

I created this lesson after a teacher asked me to

I created this lesson after a teacher asked me to help teach her students to be nice to each other. Such a simple concept, that so many struggle with (adults too!). We did this lesson twice, first handing out one kind word to each student that we felt described them. Each student read their kind word out to the class and the meaning beneath it. After, we had each student give a kind word to their classmates. (Everyone has to give one to each student so no one gets left out). This leaves every single student with a bunch of kind words that their classmates gave them. The ultimate goal of ⁣
this lesson is to boost their self-esteem and increase classroom kindness.💛⁣
