A fellow TeachShare educator loved my freebie version of the SEL check in but asked if I had a version for younger kids. I didn't, but loved the idea she gave me so I got to work right away. This resource allows kids to color in the images that they would like to talk about. Provides a simple way for students to let you know what's on their minds and what they would like to share with you.
