Skills For Learning and Development
PK-5 Skills for Learning Group Counseling
The elementary years are the ideal time to nurture social-emotional competence and develop foundational learning skills.
This is why Kathy developed a short-term group counseling program for students in grades PK-5.
I use the Second Step® curriculum for group counseling, which offers an evidence-based approach to developing healthy emotions and behaviors.
The cumulative lessons are created to help students thrive in the following areas:
Emotion Management
Skills for Learning
Empathy
Problem Solving-How to Make the Right Decisions
PLEASE NOTE! I vet each section before teaching a lesson.
I am very transparent and happy to share or discuss any details of a lesson with the parent ahead of time.
Lessons are cumulative. Each week, I review the last and introduce a new lesson that builds on skills for learning. For younger kids, I often use puppets and sing-along videos which is a lot of fun.
For older kids, I combine age-appropriate lessons with real-life situations, and fun activities. The kids have fun, make friends, and learn essential skills at the same time.
Each week, parents receive a "Home Link Handout" lesson that describes what their child is learning and explains the importance of the lesson. It also offers Questions to Ask Their Children and A Home Lesson to encourage students to practice their learning skills during the week.
