These journal prompts for 4th grade and up include a coloring doodle border which adds a mindfulness component to each quick write prompt.

Each creative writing prompt appears on a half sheet of paper as well as on full color and black and white cards.

You will also find a quick lesson on mindful coloring.

THIS FILE CONTAINS THE BUNDLE THAT INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING PRODUCTS:

• Quick Writes Journal Prompts for Upper Elem. and Middle School VOLUME ONE
• Quick Writes Journal Prompts for Upper Elem. and Middle School VOLUME TWO

Please make note of the following:

• Each prompt allows you to include a mindful coloring component. The border included with these daily quick write journal prompts can be colored before the student answers the prompt (sometimes this gives students time to reflect on what they’d like to write) or after they’ve finished writing.
• This activity can be used for students as an early finisher activity, a daily journal, for morning meetings, lessons on building community (and empathy), or for mindfulness practice. Please see the instructions for teaching students about mindfulness that are included in this file. If you are interested in additional mindfulness and meditation exercises, click HERE.
• In addition to the written response pages, I’ve included prompt cards in full color and in black-and-white. These are useful if you choose to discuss the prompts as a class or in small groups. You can also place the cards in a special location and allow students to choose one they’d like to write about on a separate piece of paper.
• Please remember that some students may not feel comfortable answering or sharing responses. It is important to respect their privacy without pressuring them to share. Either allow them to keep their response(s) private or to choose a different prompt. Forcing the issue will erode their trust in you. Let them know that they are free to share in the future, if they choose.
• It’s okay to take these cards home to share with your family, your own children, your spouse or significant other, or your friends. In addition to providing individual reflection, they are designed to help people get to know each other beyond the surface, develop empathy, and dive deeper in their relationships. I truly believe that when you REALLY get to know your students, they achieve great things!

Please let me know if you have any questions prior to purchasing this bundle!

The descriptions for this 3rd-6th grade SEL Corner Bundle are as follows:

CONFLICT RESOLUTION CORNER:

This conflict resolution corner outlines STEP-BY-STEP instructions for helping students solve conflicts with each another.  You'll find that it looks like a flowchart when it's displayed in your classroom.

Don't have a corner or bulletin board space?  That's okay!  You will also find smaller versions of the step-by-step flowchart that students can glue into a notebook.

Are your students learning online?  No worries!  We've got you covered with a digital version in Google Forms.  Students will be taken through a series of questions to help them resolve the conflict.

COOL DOWN CORNER (this bundle includes TWO options for this file):

This cool down corner was designed to help students regulate their emotions.  Teaching students to be more mindful and to develop self-control has never been more important.

Back-to-School Character-Building Bulletin Board BUNDLE: Friendship, Kindness, & Gratitude Character Education Posters and Activities for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Grade

This bundle includes THREE bulletin board poster sets.

FRIENDSHIP BULLETIN BOARD:

This FRIENDSHIP bulletin board and activities product is perfect for any time of year! It was created for 3rd grade and above (NOTE: the bulletin board can be used in lower grades, but verbiage and vocabulary on the printables are more appropriate for students in 3rd grade and above).

• Use this friendship display on a bulletin board, classroom display, counseling office, or common area in your school.
• There are two choices for each letter in FRIENDSHIP. Review the choices and print the words that will work the best with your class. You can also choose to use the word FRIEND or FRIENDS in lieu of using FRIENDSHIP (perhaps your bulletin board space is limited, for example).
• The size of the letters for the bulletin board (GOOD FRIENDS ARE…) might be too large. You can adjust the size of them when you print. The letters on the image of this product (found on the cover) are printed at 65%.
• You will find a printable for each word choice (20 pages). You will likely only use the worksheets that correspond to the words you chose for your bulletin board or display.
• PLEASE BE AWARE that you may have students who don’t feel like they have friends. Always give your class the option to write about a family member, community member, pet, or other public figure (or someone they’d like to be their friend). If you are able to observe students while they complete the activities, it’s important to keep an eye out for students who appear uncomfortable or upset. Supporting these students might involve talking with them privately or deliberately planning subsequent activities where they can connect and interact with students.

12 DAYS OF KINDNESS BULLETIN BOARD:

This 12 Days of Kindness activity is perfect for any time of year but is particularly timely for Thanksgiving in November, any December holiday, or in February for Valentine's Day. It can be used for any grade level.

• Use these posters on a bulletin board, classroom display, counseling office, or common area in your school.
• Each student should complete four acts of kindness in each of the three categories during the course of 12 days OR you can simply use the letters that say “KINDNESS CHALLENGE” and ask students to complete as many acts of kindness as they possibly can.
• There is a page that students can use to track their progress towards 12 acts of kindness. Each column should have four ripped off papers from the kindness posters when the student has completed their 12 acts of kindness challenge. You may choose NOT to use this tracker if you want students to complete more than 12 acts of kindness.
• Many of these activities will need to be completed outside of school. This is PERFECT for homework in the month of December for the holidays or in February around Valentine’s Day. Class time can be used for discussing the acts of kindness and processing their feelings and experiences as they face and complete each act of kindness.
• Offer additional copies of the 12 Days of Kindness if students choose to go above and beyond the 12 days.
• It is best for students to rip ONE ACT OF KINDNESS AT A TIME (one for each of the 12 days). There are TEN acts of kindness per category (kindness to self, kindness to others, and kindness to earth) for a total of 30 acts of kindness.
• If students ALREADY engage in an activity or suggestion, encourage them to find something different. For example, you may have students who already use reusable water bottles every single day. They would naturally need to choose a different act of kindness in that category. The idea is to challenge themselves to do something new.
• Please note that you can CHOOSE THE TITLE for your bulletin board! Here are the choices included:
  • 12 DAYS OF KINDNESS
  • KINDNESS CHALLENGE
  • 12 DAYS OF KINDNESS CHALLENGE

GRATITUDE CHALLENGE BULLETIN BOARD:

This gratitude challenge activity is perfect for any time of year, but is particularly timely for Thanksgiving in November and/or any December holiday. It can be used for any grade level.

Research shows that expressing gratitude has a positive effect on mood, peer relationships, and an overall higher quality of life. Gratitude ignites the parasympathetic nervous system, which leads to feelings of calmness. Expressing gratitude releases dopamine and serotonin, which also results in a more pleasurable state of mind.

This file contains bulletin board letters that spell "GRATITUDE CHALLENGE" as well as letter to spell "RIP-N-RECOGNIZE" (these are optional for the bulletin board), 20 RIP-N-RECOGNIZE Gratitude Challenge posters in full color and black and white, teacher tips, a gratitude challenge points page, and letter writing templates.

• Use these posters on a bulletin board, classroom display, counseling office, or common area in your school.
• Set a goal for students to reach, but issue a “challenge” for students to go above and beyond the recommended goal. Each challenge (poster) is worth TWO points. Students get one point for writing the letter and an additional point for sending or delivering the letter/note. Some posters DO REQUIRE students to research an address. NOTE: The second point on any given challenge CANNOT be earned until the letter is dropped off at the post office or delivered in person.
• You will find a challenge sheet for students to keep track of their points. You can structure the challenge in whatever way works best for your class. You can ask students to RIP-N-RECOGNIZE as an early finisher activity, a bell ringer activity, for a gratitude exercise in Social Studies, or as a writing activity during your ELA block.
• You may choose NOT to use the points as an incentive and instead teach students that expressing gratitude is an inherently rewarding experience all by itself.
• Each challenge sheet has enough space for 5 challenges. Simply offer copies of the same sheet for students who complete more than 5 letters/notes.
• It is best for students to rip ONE CHALLENGE AT A TIME. Their next challenge can’t be “ripped” until they finish the first challenge they chose. This will eliminate issues with students ripping too many challenges at a time, losing the little ripped notes, and “biting off more than they can chew”.
• There are 20 challenge options for students. Some challenges might not work for some students. Honor and respect a student’s choice NOT to do challenges that don’t work for their life circumstances. For example, you might have students who don’t know any other family members outside their immediate home, students who are in a foster situation, or students who are homeless. Requiring students to complete ALL the challenges will surely put some students in a vulnerable position and that is not the goal of this activity.

NOTE: THESE FILES INCLUDE A DIGITAL DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION!

These products include a digital option (as well as the no prep printable option). The instructions for utilizing the digital portion appear at the end of the packet.

This activity can ultimately improve confidence, communication, and assertiveness skills.

Many of our students with learning and attention issues have difficulty reading body language. Failure to pick up on non-verbal signals, including body language and gestures, can make it hard for students or children to navigate all sorts of social situations. Body language and gestures convey messages, meaning, and important information beyond what is said. This resource is intended to help students "read" body language and navigate social situations successfully. It is also intended to provide students with opportunities to practice social skills by reading and responding to people’s body languages and gestures in an appropriate, positive manner.

▶️ 12 Scenario Task Cards

The Scenario Task Cards contain highly relevant scenarios related to body language. Students are asked what the person's body language is communicating and what it indicates the person might be feeling.

There are 12 Scenario Task Cards that come in FOUR different variations:

► Set #1: Brown Task Cards with Questions

► Set #2: Brown Task Cards without Questions

► Set #3: B&W Task Cards with Questions

► Set #4: B&W Task Cards without Questions

▶️ 20 Picture Task Cards

• The Picture Task Cards contain highly relevant pictures of people using body language to communicate meaning and feelings. The body languages of the people in the task cards portray body gestures that students are familiar with and that they often see all around them in a variety of real-life social settings and situations. Students are asked what the person's body language is communicating, and what it indicates the person might be feeling.

There are 20 Picture Task Cards that come in 4 variations:

► Set #1: Brown Task Cards with Questions

► Set #2: Brown Task Cards without Questions

► Set #3: B&W Task Cards with Questions

► Set #4: B&W Task Cards without Questions

(This is a perfect opportunity for your students to practice social skills and empathy!)

SUGGESTIONS FOR USE:

How/When To Use Scenario Task Cards

• Role-Playing: Students can collaborate in pairs or groups to act out a variety of scenarios and demonstrate appropriate responses. Role-playing activities can also be used to show how "response" skills are used improperly and then asking the 'audience' to help reenact properly. This activity can ultimately improve confidence, communication, and assertiveness skills and further help students understand the difference between appropriate and inappropriate responses to people's body language and gestures.
• Play Writing Exercise: Students can work in groups to create skits or scenes related to body language then perform the skit for the class.
• Writing Response: Students can be given a scenario to read and then write their responses. Students can switch papers with a partner who then reads their responses and determines whether they agree/disagree with their responses/approaches to these real-life scenarios.
• Discussion: Students can discuss the Body Language / Non-verbal Communication Scenario Task Cards in groups or whole class. They can discuss things like “What would you do?”, “Why would you do that?”, and “What are some other options you could consider?”

*******************************

From the perspective of our students, understanding and interacting with us can be quite challenging, if not downright frustrating! In candid conversations, I've heard students express sentiments like, "Teachers seem to punish the whole class for the actions of one person," "Even though I have anxiety and struggle to speak, they insist on making me present in front of everyone," "Their lessons can be dull, and then they wonder why we zone out," "Sometimes they single me out, even when I haven't volunteered," and "They expect maturity but treat us like children." These grievances are just the tip of the iceberg. Despite our best intentions, our actions and words can often lead to frustration among our students, influencing their behavior, responses, and thoughts.

This resource enables teachers to gain insight into our students' perspectives on specific situations through real-life, everyday scenarios, and vice versa! Students also have the chance to reflect on and understand teachers' viewpoints in these situations.

One buyer stated, "This is great for helping my students practice conflict resolution when an authority figure like a teacher is involved!"

This resource presents everyday, real-life scenarios that help students develop skills for effective interaction with teachers. It aims to foster positive relationships, manage conflicts, enhance social skills and behavior, and, importantly, build confidence in handling emotions when faced with situations where teachers say or do things they find challenging. Through reflections and discussions on these scenarios, students can learn the value of recognizing and understanding various perspectives, enabling them to respond thoughtfully. They will also grasp that the tone and manner of communication can either promote harmony or create tension between teachers and students.

Moreover, this resource provides opportunities for students to:

✅ Gain insight into the motives behind teachers' actions and words.

✅ Engage with teacher situations maturely and respectfully.

✅ Explore diverse problem-solving strategies.

✅ Hone their skills in respectful communication.

✅ Reflect on their own actions and behaviors, considering how they influence teacher responses.

✅ Offer constructive suggestions to teachers for alternative approaches.

✅ Learn to negotiate and find compromises with teachers.

✅ Foster stronger and more positive relationships with teachers.

*******************************

This resource focuses on 44 common, real-life scenarios and issues that students encounter daily. It comprises 176 worksheets centered on these scenarios, each designed to prompt students to consider effective navigation strategies and practice respectful and appropriate responses.

The worksheets are available in four variations, including both print and digital formats.

✅ Worksheet Variation #1: Includes scenario with 3 questions

✅ Worksheet Variation #2: Includes scenario with 2 questions

✅ Worksheet Variation #3: Includes scenarios presented in graphic organizers, where students offer suggestions to teachers on how to handle specific situations and articulate the reasons behind their proposed ideas or solutions.

✅ **Worksheet Variation #4:**Includes scenarios without predefined questions. Instead, there is room for you to create your own questions, allowing students to write their responses accordingly.

✅ EXTRA Blank Sheets are provided without any predefined scenarios or questions, allowing you the flexibility to generate your own scenarios and questions as needed.

All worksheets are available in both print and digital formats.

*******************************

Task Cards come in the following variations as well:

• 44 COLORED with Questions
• 44 COLORED without Questions

• 44 B&W without Questions

The Scenario Task Cards are versatile and can be integrated into various instructional settings. They can serve as components of a larger lesson, be utilized in guided small groups, facilitate whole-class discussions, encourage partner discussions before sharing with the larger group or class, or even be used in one-on-one sessions with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian!

*******************************

How/When To Use the Teacher Scenario Task Cards

Role-Playing: Students can work together in pairs or groups to enact a range of scenarios and showcase appropriate responses. Role-playing activities can also illustrate improper skill usage, inviting the 'audience' to assist in reenacting them properly. Ultimately, this activity can enhance confidence, communication, assertiveness, and social skills.

Self-control, also known as Self-Regulation, is about appropriately managing your thoughts, feelings, and impulses. Self-regulation is the ability to understand and manage your behavior, reactions, and emotions to things that happen around you. It starts with being consistently mindful of yourself and others.

Self-control (or self-regulation) is an important executive functioning life skill that students need to develop in order to help them:

★ regulate reactions to strong emotions like frustration, excitement, anger and embarrassment

★ calm down after something exciting or upsetting happens

★ control impulses

★ react and behave in ways that help them get along with other people

Many students call people “friends” and don’t realize that not everyone they call a “friend” is genuine. This may also sound familiar in the adult world, too!

⭐ This resource includes 36 scenarios related to friendships that provides students the opportunity to recognize signs of fake friends and signs of real friends. The scenarios can be used to help students determine, discuss, and even act out the differences between what real friendship looks like and what fake friendship looks like. They can role play "real friend" responses to situations and "fake friend" responses to situations. By learning how to recognize superficial friends, students can spare themselves toxic drama, and move on to choose friends that will last and add meaning to their lives - ALL TOO RELEVANT!

⭐ This resource includes 36 Task Cards (Brown and B&W) making both variations printer-friendly. Also included are 36 WORKSHEETS that include the same scenarios in the Task Cards. Students can write their responses to these scenarios as a Do Now activity, formative assessment, reflection period, independent or morning assignment, therapy session, etc.

Also included is a 3-page LIST OF SCENARIOS to allow easier access for teachers to read and select scenarios to work with. It’s like an overview page of the scenarios listed in the Task Cards!

*********************************

How/When To Use the Scenario Task Cards

✅ Role-Playing: Students can collaborate in pairs or groups to act out a variety of scenarios and demonstrate the difference between "real" and "fake" friends responses. Role-playing activities can also be used to demonstrate how to appropriately handle or navigate difficult situations related to friends/friendships. Students will be exposed to a variety of ways they can handle or respond to "fake" friends in certain situations. This activity can ultimately improve confidence, communication, and assertiveness skills.

✅ Icebreaker: This can be a great way to start a meeting, training session, or team-building activity. It’s also a great way to get students to get to know each other and buy into the purpose of an upcoming activity or lesson.

✅ Play Writing Exercise: Students can work in groups to create skits or scenes then perform the skits for the class.

✅ Writing Response: Students can be given a scenario to read and then write their responses. Students can switch papers with a partner who then reads their responses and determines whether they agree/disagree with their responses/approaches to these real-life scenarios/ situations as well as their explanations to whether or not the friends are real or fake (in these situations).

✅ Discussion: Students can discuss the Scenario Task Cards in groups or whole class. They can discuss things like "Is this person a real or fake friend - why or why not?" "What ELSE would a real friend do or say in this situation?", "How can you respectfully handle this situation?" “Why would you do that?”, and “What are some other options you could consider in terms of what you would do or say to a 'friend' like this?"

*******************************

Many young teens, and even adults, struggle with maintaining a filter, finding it challenging to prevent their thoughts, feelings, or emotions from influencing their choice of words—especially when upset or feeling wronged. They may impulsively express the first thing that comes to mind, neglecting to consider the potential consequences. This tendency often leads to unnecessary drama and negative energy. It is crucial for students to acquire the skill of controlling their emotions in awkward situations and thinking before they speak. Our words possess the power to either uplift or damage people's self-esteem and confidence. While honesty is fundamental to lasting relationships, expressing true feelings should be approached with respect, care, and appropriateness.

These three resources include Task Cards, Worksheets, PowerPoint presentations, and Sample Responses focused on the themes of social filtering and thoughtful responding—available in both print and digital formats!

This presents an excellent chance for students to master the skill of "filtering their thoughts." The scenarios in these resources are highly relatable, reflecting experiences that students encounter nearly every day.
