Sharing More!

I am going to start sharing more with you!

I always feel like I need to have some amazing idea to write a post... there are so many ideas I have on a daily basis...

Sometimes I think Well, I guess I could just share it on Facebook because it is not enough information to write a post about...

From now on, however, I will let you be the judge. Even if the post is short I feel there are lots of things I can and want to share with you.

Facebook is great for sharing ideas, but if I share those same ideas on School Counselor Blog they are searchable and people can access them later.

If you aren't a fan of the School Counselor Blog Facebook page I highly encourage it! As I'm writing this post there are 3,377 School Counselor Blog Facebook Fans (and counting).  We have some great conversations on Facebook. School counselors are able to get a lot of feedback from each other!

The best way for you to keep up to date and get the latest posts from School Counselor Blog is to click here to receive School Counselor Blog post via email. You can also sign up using RSS feed.

If you sign up to receive School Counselor Blog via email you will get every post delivered right to your inbox! If you want to School Counselor blog delivered to your personal email and your school email subscribe with each email address.

I personally use Google Reader to read blogs. It is really simple to set up. On the Google Reader page you just hit the subscribe button in the upper left hand corner. You then enter the blog's URL (website address) into the box and click on the add button.  You will automatically start getting all of the blogs you subscribe to in one place.  If you like to read blogs on your phone or tablet there are lots of great FREE apps you can use that integrate with Google Reader. I use Feedly (iPhone and iPad) and Flipboard (iPhone and iPad). The cool thing about Flipboard is that you can also sign up for feeds from your Twitter, Facebook, and other accounts.

Are you ready for more ideas and information? How to you read blog posts? Do you use email or RSS to read blogs?

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...
