Here is what we did today:
UOI: Our lesson today was on Mental Health and Empowerment! We started our lesson with a brainstorm on what is mental health. We spoke about how it is similar to physical health. We watched to videos to support our discussion. Here are the links:

We reflected on what it looks, feels, acts and sounds like to have a "healthy" and "unhealthy" mental health.
We read two books about how to empower yourself! The students thoroughly enjoyed them! We talked about how little acts of kindness have the biggest effects. Be the change you want to see in the world!

UOI: We watched "Inside Out" as a compliment to unit. We discussed how this movie portrayed emotions, how we cope with difficult situations and our emotions, and triggers. We will be completing a booklet tomorrow as a reflection.
