BENEFITING STUDENTS

Each week students will learn self-regulation skills they can use at home and school to help them manage their emotions. The goal of this self-regulation group is for students to identify how they are feeling and use coping strategies to feel better! In addition, they will improve their communication skills and learn how to practice calm-down strategies.

At a minimum, being in the counseling group allows students to identify and share their feelings, develop self-esteem through participation, and practice empathy while hearing others’ experiences.

SAVING TIME

With easy-to-implement outlines and activities, this group curriculum is very low-prep. Simply print out each session before students arrive and keep them in a file folder. For tips on how to organize your small groups, check out this blog post.
