ストレスと不安; 自信を持って心配を管理する!

In this class, students will learn about stress, worry, and anxiety.  According to the American Psychological Association about 20% of children report worrying a great deal. In this class students will learn what stress is and discuss the stress we feel today. Students will watch a short 2 minute video of kids talking about stress and what they do to manage it. This will reinforce the definition of stress as well as let them know they are not alone in their worries. Understanding that Stress and worry can be different for everyone. We will discuss different stressors in our daily lives, and how to know when we are feeling Stressed.

We will discuss that not all stress is bad, especially when it can keep us from danger or propel us to do well giving examples of each. Students will learn the best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life, meaning to make good decision about how to spend your time keeping your SELF in mind; Sleep, Exercise, Leisure(fun), and Food. We will discuss each of these with examples as well as getting support, reaching out to the people who care about you and having a positive mindset.   

My classroom is an interactive place where students can feel free to share their thoughts and experiences. I feel each child is special, as I do not discriminate race, creed, culture, gender, religion or abilities. My goal is to create a productive learning environment where each student gains the knowledge they need to manage the stress in their life productively.  No prior knowledge is needed.

It would be a privilege to share this lesson with your learner in the classroom!
