The first half of this session will be introducing you to social emotional books used by a previous 3rd grade teacher and current elementary counselor covering topics from feelings to friendship, grief and parent incarceration.
The second half is where the BYOB (Bring Your Own Book) comes into play. Bring your favorite social emotional/counseling books to share with other counselors and teachers who would like to add SEL books to their libraries.
Human trafficking is the largest growing criminal activity in the world. Youth are being targeted in every community…including yours. Learn how to recognize the signs of trafficking and help identify high-risk youth in your school and community. Online enticement is at an all-time high, and while we cannot eliminate the use of social media and online activity for our students, we CAN educate ourselves, students, parents, and community members on the ways to protect our youth.
