Staying in control of our feelings
When things go wrong in our lives we don't always react the way we should. When we are this classroom everyday with each other we need to have a system in place for communication in our classroom.
Participants should say to their students: "If feelings take control we may not think, communicate our thoughts, or feelings in an appropriate way. Sometimes it is needed to take time some time to cool our thoughts down before having a conversation."

- Pause after each guess and discuss how they should react in each feeling.
- After discuss why it is important to stay in control of your feelings.
Participants should show their students the Inside Out Feelings Slides.
- Have your students complete this independently for homework. Review the slides and analyze how your students understood emotions.
Introduce the Social Emotional Learning Check in Journal- You can either give each student a copy on google slides/powerpoint or print out the journals and collect them after each day. Using these journal check ins can allow you to see if participants students are understanding and if they are doing okay.
Have students complete slides/pages "Feeling Scale" and "Problem Solving" after you introduce the journal.
