Have students watch the social story, pause at key moments to identify examples of self-control, and then create a class anchor chart of actions they can use to stop, think, and make a choice. Invite students to draw a three-panel comic showing a character facing an impulse, stopping to think, and making a thoughtful choice. Older or technology-ready students can create their comics with Free Comic Maker by Adobe, reviewed here.

Explore children's self-perceptions with this detailed overview of the Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC), a self-report psychological assessment designed primarily for ages 8-12. The page explains the instrument's purpose, validity, reliability, methodology, and six areas of self-perception: scholastic competence, social acceptance, athletic competence, physical appearance, behavioral conduct, and global self-worth. It also presents the 36 assessment items and references supporting research. It explains the structured response format, in which children select between contrasting descriptions and indicate whether each is "Really True" or "Sort of True" for them. This resource is better suited to educators learning about student self-concept and appropriately qualified professionals using the instrument than to an informal whole-class personality activity.

Build positive self-talk into the school day with this collection of 50 short affirmations designed to support children's confidence, self-esteem, resilience, emotional regulation, and overall well-being. The article briefly explains what affirmations are and why repeated positive self-talk can help, then offers statements centered on themes such as kindness, handling mistakes, asking for help, respecting boundaries, managing difficult feelings, problem-solving, and perseverance. A ready-to-use Positive Self-Talk Flower craft extends the list into a hands-on activity using construction paper, scissors, and a marker. Children write an affirmation on each flower petal, fold the petals inward, and reveal and repeat the statements one at a time. A printable flower is also available.
tag(s): social and emotional learning (235), emotions (82)
In the Classroom
Ask students to create the Positive Self-Talk Flower described in the article by writing a different affirmation on each petal and using the finished flowers as personal reminders throughout the school day. Invite students to brainstorm original affirmations and collect them on Padlet, reviewed here, creating a digital class wall students can revisit when they need encouragement. Have students practice identifying negative self-talk in age-appropriate fictional scenarios, then work in small groups to rewrite each example as a more constructive statement without pretending that difficult feelings do not exist.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

This age-specific preparedness guide helps children and teens understand what to do before, during, and after a wildfire. The resource organizes safety advice for ages 4-8, 9-12, and 13-18, gradually increasing students' responsibilities as they get older. Topics include creating and practicing an evacuation plan, assembling a wildfire go-bag, calling 911, recognizing evacuation routes and alerts, reducing smoke exposure, and supporting children's emotional well-being before and after a wildfire. A visual go-bag checklist provides a ready-to-use reference, and the page includes FAQs and sources from organizations such as the EPA, NASA, Children's Hospital Colorado, and the U.S. Congress.
tag(s): preK (355), fire (29), fire safety (22)
In the Classroom
Ask students to examine the wildfire go-bag checklist and create their own emergency-preparedness poster with Adobe Creative Cloud Express, reviewed here, which can be used to design flyers, presentations, social media-style posts, and other visuals. Ask students to sketch an evacuation plan for a hypothetical home, school, or classroom that includes two possible exits and a safe meeting location, then exchange plans with a partner who checks whether the route is clear and practical. The site specifically recommends practicing evacuation plans and routes regularly. Have older students analyze the section on wildfire smoke, identify claims about health effects and prevention, and create review questions using Wayground (formerly Quizizz), reviewed here. Use the student-created questions as a formative assessment after the safety unit.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Join Cowboy Jack and Life Safety Officer Giraud for an engaging introduction to fire prevention, emergency preparedness, and everyday child safety. During this approximately 19-minute visit to Montgomery County Emergency Services District 3, viewers learn why quick evacuation matters, how smoke and heat behave during a fire, why working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms matter, and how families can create home escape plans with multiple ways out. The pair also examines different types of fire extinguishers and demonstrates the PASS method, discusses common household fire hazards such as unattended cooking and improperly stored batteries, and introduces first aid and water-safety basics. The conversational format, real safety equipment, fire truck setting, demonstrations, and repeated safety reminders make potentially serious topics approachable for younger viewers. If your district blocks YouTube, you won't be able to view the video.

Make fire and life safety instruction practical with this collection of ready-to-use lesson plans from the National Fire Protection Association. These materials cover home fire escape planning, calling 9-1-1, responsible decision-making, fire risks, and other safety topics for different ages and audiences. Several resources are designed as concise 10-minute mini-lessons, while others provide more extensive instruction for specific groups. For example, an early-adolescent lesson for grades 6-8 focuses on fire-safe behaviors for students who may stay home alone, while another helps young adolescents evaluate risky fire-related behaviors and make safer choices. Lesson materials typically provide an audience, objective, suggested timing, instructional steps, discussion questions, and supporting safety messages, making the collection useful for classroom health lessons, community safety programs, and visits from firefighters or other safety educators.

Ask students to create a fire-safety infographic using Canva for Education, reviewed here. Students can focus each infographic on one NFPA lesson topic, such as escape planning, smoke alarms, responsible behavior, or emergency calls.

Make kindness and empathy part of bullying prevention with this brief resource from Share My Lesson. Created for National Bullying Prevention Month, the resource directs teachers to the Rules of Kindness campaign, which gives children and teens tools to stop bullying and help prevent it by building empathy and kindness. Teachers can use the linked campaign materials and kindness lesson plans to move beyond identifying hurtful behavior and focus on positive actions students can take to create a more caring classroom or school community. The Share My Lesson entry itself contains little instructional content, so teachers will need to use the linked external resources to build out the lesson.

Turn bullying prevention into an integrated month of learning with this ready-to-use collection of lessons, activities, reproducibles, literature connections, and assessment materials for grades 3-5. Centered on empathy, kindness, acceptance, positive communication, and safe responses to bullying, the resource includes lessons such as "The Problem with Bullying," "Mean Words Hurt," "Helping Our Friends Stop Bullying," "The Other Person's Shoes," "Just Kidding," and "Courageous and Safe." Students examine teasing and bullying, practice being positive bystanders, distinguish asking for help from tattling, and consider when to seek adult assistance. Printable materials include vocabulary activities, a word find, scenario-based worksheets, a game, writing and drawing prompts, and a culminating bullying quiz. Cross-curricular extension ideas connect the theme with language arts, literature, art, music, and math.
tag(s): social and emotional learning (235), empathy (81), bullying (56)
In the Classroom
Have students complete the "The Problem with Bullying" activity, then discuss nonviolent responses such as staying calm, using I-messages, saying "stop," avoiding fighting, and seeking help from a trusted adult. Ask students to examine the "Just Kidding" scenarios individually, decide when joking crosses the line into hurtful teasing, and defend their decisions with evidence from each situation.

Give students straightforward strategies for handling cyberbullying with this short video from the Federal Trade Commission. Using situations familiar to young people, including texting, commenting, sharing, gossip, rumors, and hurtful online messages, the video emphasizes that respectful behavior matters online just as it does face-to-face. Students learn practical steps for responding to online harassment, including avoiding retaliation, blocking or ignoring the person when possible, saving evidence if the behavior continues, asking an adult for help, and standing up for someone experiencing cyberbullying. The video closes by encouraging students to treat others as they would like to be treated and to stop and think before clicking. Downloadable MP4 and WMV versions make the video convenient for classroom use even when streaming is impractical.
