Stress Management Game played like Apples To Apples-Handouts
Special Resources, Social Emotional Learning (SEL), Special Education Needs (SEN), Social Skills, Grade 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Activities, Games
In this fun game, played similarly to the Apples To Apples game, students will read different stressful situations and choose a strategy they would use for that situation. There are 18 situation cards and 36 strategy cards. Each player draws 5 strategy cards (they do not show the other players which cards they have). The "judge" will draw a situation card and show the other players the card after reading the situation. For example, "You don't know the answers when taking a test." Then the other players will choose a strategy card they would use for that situation and place it face down to near the judge. The judge will read the different strategy cards and choose which one they would most likely choose. Important to convey to students: There is no "wrong" strategy, just a strategy that the judge would most likely use. Then for the next round, a different person is the judge and the game continues. the discarded strategy cards can get placed under the strategy pile. the person whose strategy was chosen, gets the situation card and also gets one point. This is a fun and engaging way to get students talking about different strategies they would use for stress management as well as different types of stressful situations they can manage if they need to. In this resource you will also be getting 2 mindful coloring handouts. This is a great way to finish the lesson after the game. I also like to begin this lesson by introducing a Brain Pop on stress. You can also choose a short video of your choice or a book about stress to prime the students' brains about what stress is, possible triggers of stress and how to cope with stress. Then the game can be played and can reinforce the topic.

Teaching students the importance of setting goals for themselves should start early. This is a simple activity for little ones to do when learning about goal setting.They will reflect on their strengths and on skills at which they should improve.

I’m a super star at… 2. I would like to get better at… 3. My teacher’s goal for me is… Prior to having young students complete this hand-out, I would lead with a whole group discussion about the importance of goal setting, why it matters, how we work towards achieving our goals, and the different ways we can measure mastery of our goals. Allow students the time and space to discuss with partners or small groups. Assist students who need the extra help with setting their goals. This is offered as a PDF and an editable PowerPoint . As students get older, it is important for them to learn how to set goals that are best for them as individuals. This activity is a good way to get students started at setting their own SMART goals. The learning goals printable for intermediate students is a 1-page printable that consists of an acronym for SMART. This comes as an editable PowerPoint , so students can type their goals in. The goal setting prompts are: S – Your goal is Specific. Who, what, when, where, why? M – Your goal is Measurable. You will know when you’ve met it. A – Your goal is Attainable. You can achieve it. R – Your goal is Relevant. It applies to your wants and needs. T – Your goal is Time-bound. There is an end in sight.

Desert Number Cards
Math, Early Math, Numbers, Kindergarten, Preschool, Activities
These desert themed number cards are perfect for students who are learning with a desert theme. They make the perfect tool for students to learn the names of the number. What is Included: This set includes one number card and one number word card for all numbers up to 20. Ways to Use the Cards: Play a matching game by matching the numbers to their number words. Attach a paper clip to a number card and use a magnetic fishing pole to "catch" the numbers for a fun fishing game. Use a sand or salt tray for students to practice writing the numbers or number words on each card. Have students find the numbers that you have hidden around the room for a fun number hunt. Place the number cards in numerical order. Create a pocket char game where you place the cards on a pocket chart and hide a picture behind one of the numbers. The students will guess which number the hidden picture is behind. Add objects so students can count to the number on the card. When to Use: Math Center - Place the cards in a math center for students to match independently or with a partner. Morning Tubs or Baskets - Place the cards in a morning bin for students to work on while their classmates arrive to class. Small Group Activities - The teacher can pull aside a small group of students who need extra practice identifying numbers and number words. These desert number cards are a great activity for students to practice number recognition during a habitat study on the desert. They are a low prep activity for teachers to prepare for students. Simply print, cut apart and laminate for durability. These cards can be stored in a task box for easy set up, clean up, and storage. Skills Assessed: These cards, depending on the materials added, can assess both number recognition and number word recognition.
