This FREEBIE is part of the second section of my social emotional learning unit 9: Navigating Worries. This social emotional learning resource helps children recognize what worries them, decide how big that worry is and discusses tools for navigating that worry. It provides hands-on activities to put these skills to use! This FREE PDF is 7 pages in length and include an anchor chart and writing prompt. The entire unit can be FOUND HERE. It includes three separate sections: 1.) What is a worry? 2.) How big is my worry? 3.) What do I do with my worries? Each of the three sections includes a lesson plan, anchor chart, either role play prompts, group discussion prompts and/or social stories, a cut-and-paste activity, writing prompts and a word search. I hope this resource helps the children in your life to THRIVE! If this freebie is helpful for you, I would be so grateful if you would leave feedback! For more information about the resources I create, check out my website here. You can also sign up for my newsletter there to learn about new resources FIRST!
