Touch the Future

I like the idea of a checklist and a physical thing for students to use when they may need to be mindful. This could be a self-directed activity in a think spot or quiet zone.

Social emotion

It was a great topic and well presented. It reenforced the importance of getting kids to learn that emotions are ok and that you can have more than one at a time. I have started to use this in my practice and getting good reviews from my clients
