As many of you know, thanks to clinical social worker Lynn Lyons, I am using some new strategies this year to help support students who are struggling with worries or anxious feelings. I am so proud of my Pond Cove friends who have worked hard to stop their worry cycle. It's been amazing to watch students grow more confident as they learn strategies to talk back to their worry. As students become experts on using their knowledge and skills, they are able to focus more attention back onto learning and fun.
If you have been following my blog closely, you may also have seen that Lynn's workshop in the Fall also changed how I respond to my own worries. If you're interested in seeing some of the skills that I have been teaching in action, check out theses videos of me and my friend Mr. Elevator!
