What's Included?

1. Straw The Scarecrow

While kids can feel scared any time, we thought since spooky season is here, it would be a good time to talk to kids about feelings scared. Thinking about being scared can be, yes, scary. This is why we've created a fun workbook that features Straw, a scarecrow who is scared of a lot of things. Even though he is scared a lot, Straw knows that it is normal to feel scared and wants to help kids understand that everyone feels scared sometimes. 

It is important that students learn how to manage strong emotions. Feeling scared is a strong emotion that can feel overwhelming and everlasting. The 'Straw the Scared Scarecrow' workbook is designed to help students understand that it is normal to feel scared sometimes and that feeling scared is only temporary. The workbook also teaches students that their brain works to protect them in times when they feel scared. When students are able to understand what emotions they are experiencing and how those emotions affect them, they are better able to self-regulate. 

The activities in the student workbook can be used to supplement the learning or can be given to students at any time as part of your social emotional learning classroom toolkit.

2. No Tricks, Just Treats of Kindness Activity 

The Halloween season is here which means pumpkins, costumes and trick-or-treating. To celebrate the Halloween season, we've created a fun way for kids to learn about kindness. This is a social emotional learning take on trick-or-treat: No Tricks, Only Treats of Kindness.  

Kindness can be expressed in many ways through words and actions, and practicing kindness allows children to develop kindness as a skill. This activity is designed to help children practice kindness with intention.   

3. Make a Friendly Monster

In school and in life, students will find that they need to work with a partner or as a member of a group or team. Being able to collaborate is a skill that students will need throughout their lives, but it is also a skill that needs to be taught and strengthened through intentional practice. Learning how to be a good partner and collaborator will set students up to be successful when they need to work with others. 

This lesson, Make a Friendly Monster, can be adapted to fit any elementary or middle school classroom. Age it up or down with your choice of books and vocabulary!
