#BellLetsTalk

Bell Lets Talk Day 2019

A conversation about Mental Health.

What students had to say:

"Mental Health affects us all"

"Talk about it"

"Mental Health is Brain Health"

"Treat yourself to do something you like"

"I have MENTAL HEALTH too..."

"EVERYONE has Mental Health"

"MENTAL HEALTH is normal"

"You're getting better everyday in every way"

Awareness and Education can help fight the 

stigma surrounding Mental Health.

This week's BIG idea: Tattling

From the book Tattle Tongue by Julia Cook :

Anger Mapping

Anger is a Secondary Emotion

This week students spent time self reflecting on their Anger.

Emotion of the Week : Anger

This week we are exploring the emotion ANGER.

On Monday we watched this BrainPop Jr. Video on Anger: 

The audio quality for the YouTube version of this video is scratchy. 

You can also watch this video on BrainPop Jr. with an account.

Then students explored their "Anger Buttons":

Moving forward we will explore the Anger Iceberg:

Then we will complete our own "Anger Map" :

(once completed I will share student work on the blog - stay tuned!) 

Finally, we will explore self-regulation strategies that we can use to manage our Anger.
