I am so excited to host the School Counselor Blog Back to School Contest, which is 10 days of daily giveaways starting today (September 1st) and ending on September 10th!

The first giveaway for the School Counselor Blog Back to School Contest is the Good-Bye Bully Machine book and the Good-Bye Bully Machine Card Game by Debbie Fox and Allan L. Beane from Free Spirit Publishing. 

Good-Bye Bully Machine is one of my favorite books I use with students. I wrote a post about using Good-Bye Bully Machine for lessons with second, third, and fourth grade and creating an anti-bullying machine bulletin board.  I also used messages from Good-Bye Bully Machine to create another bulletin board.

There is a free facilitators guide available from Free Spirit Publishing for use with the Good-Bye Bully Machine Book.

Good-Bye Bully Machine Card Game

Card Game
The Good-Bye Bully Machine Card Game has great graphics and just like the book. Students answer the questions on the card with the goal of disassembling the "bully machine." The best part about this game is that everyone wins when the bully machine is dismantled!

I have used the Good-Bye Bully Machine Card Game with students 5th and 6th grade students in groups and during classroom lessons.  My colleague has used the game for 3rd and 4th grade lessons after reading students the Good-Bye Bully Machine book.

Take What You Need, Give What You Can Sticky Note Board

Image
Last year, I saw a lot of "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" Bulletin Boards popping up everywhere. I decided to fuel my new found love of printing on sticky notes and make a sticky note version. The idea behind the "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" board is that you take a positive message that you "need" to hear or "give" (write) a positive or uplifting message for someone else to take. I displayed the "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" sticky note board on a window near the school counseling office. A traditional bulletin board could also be used to display this sticky note board.  I created 18 different positve messages to print on sticky notes for the "Take What You Need" side of the board. To make this "Take What You Need, Give What You Can" sticky note board, you will need the following items: A printer Printer paper to print the sticky...

Spring Mindfulness Bulletin Board with QR Codes

Image
I created this colorful, interactive, spring bulletin board for our March & April PBIS theme, mindfulness. I made this bulletin board interactive for students by adding QR Codes with different mindfulness activities. Since most things need to be touch-less right now, I thought using QR Codes would be an easy way for students to access some mindfulness activities. If you are not familiar with QR Codes, QR stands for Quick Response. QR Codes are scannable with a smart device camera (iPad, tablet, or smart phone). you can easily make your own QR codes by using a QR Code generator. You can link the QR Code to a website or online document. When the user scans the QR Code they will be directed to the link. I used  QR Code Generator  to create the QR Codes.  I got the idea for this bulletin board while looking for mindfulness resources. I stumbled upon a New York Times article about "Pinwheel Breathing." This sent me down a rabbit hole of brainstormin...

FREE Career Interest Games and Inventories on VA Career View

Image
I have been searching for fun and interactive career activities to facilitate with students this year. I rediscovered  Virginia Career View , which has a wealth of computer based and printable career activities. I have used this website many times, but each time I visit I am surprised by how truly awesome this site is. In the K-5 Section of  Virginia Career View  there is an interactive game called  Career Town ! I used the  Career Town  game with some 5th grade students last year and they loved it. Career Town has three levels with different games to learn about jobs on each level.  The  Career Town  has an educators guide  for each "level' of the game. The  educators guide  has ideas of how you can utilize the game to meet standards and includes ideas for extension activities.  In the 6-8 Grade section, there is a career cluster assessment activity called "Who R U?" . It is web-based. The Vi...
