I’m
not sure about elsewhere, but its been getting a bit spooky around here…
This month in the Cookie Monster room we have been discussing…the BRAIN! During small groups, we identified “all” the things the brain does:
The
goal in teaching about the BRAIN this month is to help give children an
understanding of how we develop, how the brain learns to adapt to adversity, how
to have a “calm” brain, and how emotions are connected to our brain.
Next
week we will making our own brains (ewww)…with playdough! I found many helpful BRAIN ideas from
the lovely Rebecca at School Counseling by Heart. Have you checked out her blog yet, its chalk full of super fun counseling ideas!
And
have you guys met Ned the Neuron?
He’s pretty “electric.” For more brainy ideas, check out my Pinterest!
