My Project
The goal of my Counseling Corner is to provide a peaceful, relaxing space for counseling groups, individual counseling sessions, and whole-group class lessons, so that students are better able to learn self-regulation and emotional skills, conflict resolution, anger management skills, and coping skill development. The modern striped area rug, the lava lamp, the touch control table lamp, and The Big Joe classic beanbag chair will make the space physically relaxing and inviting for students. The following books: The little spot of feelings 8 books box set, My Body Sends a Signal: Helping Kids Recognize Emotions and Express Feelings, I'm Just a Kid: A Social-Emotional Book about Self-Regulation, I Choose to Try Again: A Colorful, Rhyming Picture Book About Perseverance and Diligence, Impulsive Ninja: A Social, Emotional Book For Kids About Impulse Control for School and Home, All Feelings Are Okay: A Kid's Book About Different Moods and Emotions; Helps Kids Identify and Accept Feelings; Autism; ADHD, ADD, SPD will all help students during individual, group, and whole-group guidance lessons learn these important social-emotional skills. The LOLUIS Mood Meter Poster will teach students how to identify and recognize feelings and the kids' book rack will help organize the above-mentioned books. I will use the Melissa and Doug safari hand puppets, play dough, and Japanese zen garden as tools/resources during individual and group play therapy. Play therapy helps children learn more helpful behaviors, understand their emotions, and gain insight into resolving inner conflicts. The toy storage organizer will organize the puppets, play dough, and other counseling resources.
Being the only counselor at my school, my students deserve the most inviting, relaxing space possible so that they can better learn self-regulation, coping strategies, and express themselves through play when they are unable to verbally express themselves.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
