Well, it's Monday again! This will be our third week of distance learning. I think predictability and knowing what to expect is super important to my middle schoolers, so that is why I have developed and am using my Week At Glance document with the same types of activities featured each day of the week. I thrive on routine and I think they do too!!! Feel free to check it out there!
On Mondays, I offer two activities to the kids. Mindful Morning videos are one of my favorite things to do. Not only does it help the kids relax and take a breath from time to time, but it also helps me! We could all use a chance to practice the skills that will help us cope through this difficult time. This video's activity focuses on positive thoughts for difficult people. Something everyone can benefit from!
I also love to do a an art therapy lesson for Maker Monday. This is one of my "silver linings" for this tough time. I have always wanted to find a way to incorporate art therapy in my tier 1 interventions, so Maker Mondays help me do just that! I am looking forward to completing my "homework" and making my own Gratitude Mandala.
I hope everyone has a great Monday!!!
Take care,
Heather
