Emotion Coaching
Alissa Jarden
Ideas to Implement
Training for our team members…. LMS teachers
Behaviour Plans for our key children in our Syndicate- practise the skills during Positive Learning Through Play, Discovery Time
Calming Box- create for each class in the syndicate
Calming Space- maybe use the learning spaces between the classrooms- things to do to it.
In Syndicate meetings to have time to talk among the group about behaviour strategies- Ako partnerships. Choosing scenarios that we can practise on how to approach these situations
Key idea and points to remember
Use statements like “I am wondering…”
“Is there another way we could do this…” Checking back with the children...
Linking back to class/school rules-
Emotion Coaching is a strategy in your bank of tools to use when working with children who are not able to self regulate.
Consistent framework when working with behaviour. Give children understanding to their own emotions
Teaching calming strategies-
Breathing- balloon breathing, butterfly breathing, blowing out the candles, Connex ball breathing
“Hey Sigmund” website- reassurance that they can manage the anxiety not that they don’t have to worry.
What makes them feel better at school.
A feelings moment in the class- to check in… Morning mat session- talk to a friend about how you feeling today… anyone has a feeling to share.. Role model with puppet Sally… review different emotions.
