Weekly Planner

Over the years, I have searched for a weekly planner that suited my needs. I have been unsuccessful so in my spare time 😂, I created one. I wanted one that had 15 minute increments and only Monday-Friday. The blank space under each day of the week is to write in the date. I use an 8.5in x 11in Arc Notebook System. I love this system because I am able to move pages around as I see fit. I also purchased the Arc System desktop puncher to be able to add pages. For the monthly dividers, I printed the months on card stock (see below) and used adhesive monthly tabs. I created dividers for Weekly Schedule, Counseling Lessons, and Notes.

If you would like to use these pages and other resources that I have created, please visit my TpT store.

Calm-Down Techniques

As I was looking for things to add to my school counseling website, I came across this website with 50 calm-down techniques for kids. This is great for any kids (adults, too) right now as we are quarantined in our homes.

Counseling Website

Covid-19 has thrown many challenges our way. In particular, schooling from home. School counseling can be particularly challenging in this regard. In an effort to stay connected to the students and families at my school, I have created a website using Google Sites.  I am adding information and activities every day to share with our families. If you are looking for a way to connect with your families, I recommend Google Sites. 

SEL Challenge & Scavenger Hunt

A school counselor posted this fun SEL (Social Emotional Learning) Challenge & Scavenger Hunt and gave me permission to share with all of you.

Yay for Julia Cook!!!

I just love how all of the Facebook communities I am in are coming together to help our families during this very odd and challenging time. Julia Cook announced that she will be doing Facebook live readings of her books on Mondays and Fridays at 9:00am Central Time. What a great way to connect with our families! She is beginning on Friday, March 30 with Wilma Jean the Worry Machine.

THANK YOU, JULIA COOK!!!

Social Emotional Learning at Home (Covid 19)

Many of our schools are closing for several weeks due to the Coronavirus (Covid 19). For those families who are in need of social emotional learning or counselors who are working remotely, I am going to share any free resources that I find. I will continue to add things as I find them.  Stay healthy!!!

Please share these resources with anyone who may need them and let me know if you find any that I can add.  Thank you to the individuals who have provided these wonderful resources!!
