BENEFITING STUDENTS

In my experience, small groups are the best way to connect with students. I love that they are able to learn from each other and build relationships as we cover each topic.

At a minimum, being in the group allows students to identify and share their feelings, develop self-esteem through participation, and practice empathy while hearing others’ experiences.

SAVING TIME

With easy-to-implement outlines and activities, this group curriculum is very low-prep. Simply print out each session before students arrive and keep them in a file folder.

For tips on how to organize your small groups, check out this blog post I wrote. The self-assessments are a great way to get students to self-reflect on their progress and you can then share this information with teachers, and parents, or in your program report.

COUNSELORS LIKE YOU SAID...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Megan P. "This resource bundle has been an absolute life saver!"

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amanda J. "I really enjoyed having the resources all laid out ready to go. I would print off the whole thing as a 'counselor copy' and then make copies of things for the kiddos as we got closer to their group day. I liked all the activities and would recommend them to another counselor to add to their collection."
