November Classroom Guidance
In Kindergarten this month we will learn ways to tell if something happened by accident or on purpose. We will practice reading social situations and role-play what to do if you hurt someone by accident. We’ll also begin to learn effective ways to manage frustration and calm down from strong feelings.

In First, Second, and Third grades we will be learning more ways to calm down, and we will be practicing some problem solving strategies together. I will be teaching various lessons that include strategies that have been proven effective in helping students calm down from strong feelings.

Students will learn to recognize when they get angry,
what makes them angry, and what to do to calm down
and stay in control
