Since we still have remote learners… and my group was 100% remote learners… there were other tubs out there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n STEP 3<\/span>: I emailed parents letting them know that there were materials ready for pick up in the tub marked “Ms. King” outside of school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n STEP 4: Group Time! Did a couple of kids not pick up their supplies? yup! But they watched so they knew what to do and I emailed parents again for pick up reminder. I included the directions for creating this which comes from my Mindset Matters curriculum on page xx, but there are tons of variations all overthe web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I miss doing craft projects and this was a perfect way to let these virtual students have a sense of belonging, while we also talked about using this bottle as a coping skill. We will expand on learnign about coping skills in the lesson we do next week in group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The students loved this. I loved this. Can’t wait to get back to crafting with the kids F2F, but in the meantime, I was glad the kids got to do soemthing hands on. Best story for how I know that this lesson had impact? The next day remote kids were coming in for standardized testing (don’t get me started on testing during a pandemic!!!). One kiddo walked in with …. you guessed it… his cool down bottle! He said his dad made an amazing slow motion video of it. Home-School Connection. \u2714CHECK!\u2714<\/p>\n\n\n\n QUESTIONS about any of the deets?
