Publisher's Synopsis
How can we help kids enjoy learning more?
This book sets out to do just that with 60 positive activities, each page a hand-drawn illustration and a prompt for writing, discussion, drawing or all of the above. Students will love the open-ended questions, the fun drawings, and the opportunity to draw, color, write, or sketch.
Yet these positive classroom activities have a serious purpose: building resilience, grit, and mindfulness. When kids get caught in a negative cycle of frustration and anxiety, they don't learn or retain information as well! The prompts in this book are designed to help free students from this negativity, build self-understanding, create compassion, and help them love to learn.
Students will be:
- telling jokes
- remembering happy memories
- creating new holidays
- writing thank you notes
and more...
Highly adaptable and flexible, these exercises are make great stress-busters, brain-breaks, warmers, fillers, or fast-finisher activities.
Easy to fit into a primary-school classroom, after-school program, preschool, nursery school, kindergarten, or even homeschooling situation.
