East Greenwich Strategic Support Mentor Program Presents Mental Health Month Teacher Support Toolkit East Greenwich Strategic Support Mentor Program Presents Mental Health Month Teacher Support Toolkit This Year’s Theme- Staying Mentally Healthy is just as important as Physical Health ​ The Toolkit Includes Suggestions for: ● Age Appropriate Mental Health Vocabulary ● Mental Health Read Alouds and Mental Health Topic Books for Children ● Basic Feelings Word List, Word Search and Emotional Weather Report ● Ways to Boost Mental Health and Coping Tool Box ● Calming Down Yoga Poses for Kids ● Mindfulness for Kids ● Talking about Mental Health Conditions and Using the Right Words ● Talking about Mental Health Conditions- Common Myths and Questions ● Online National Mental Health Resources ● Mental Health Wellness Local Resources ● The Power of the Words We Use ● 10 Scientific Ways to Be Happy Introduction- We know this time of year can be busy and there is little room in your schedule to add anything in. However, we hope that you might take a few moments this month to highlight Children’s Mental Health as part of National Mental Health Month. Children’s Mental Health is one of the most important aspects of working with children yet it often falls in the sidelines due to stigma and a focus on mental illnesses over mental health. We hope you find the Mental Health Teacher’s Support Toolkit includes suggested activities that can ​ ​ ​ be modified as you see fit to quickly and easily increase awareness of mental health in your classroom. The ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ goal is to arm your students with a few tools to help them achieve a positive mental health life style. Your ​ complete electronic toolkit is waiting in your email inbox including resources starting at early elementary and ​ progressing to high school. At the same time if there is a child who you are worried about for any reason and you feel would benefit from some one on one attention, please do not hesitate to fill out the Mentor Program Teacher Referral Form or contact the Mentor Program. While you may think it is too late in the year to get something started, statistically spring is the time when people vulnerable to mental health conditions suffer the most and a key time for intervention. Thank you for your time and consideration. Please feel free to contact the Strategic Support Mentoring Program with questions or for more resources. We are happy to help in any way possible.

Why does it matter? 8 Ways to Teach Mindfulness to Kids 07/23/2014 03:26 pm ET | Updated Sep 22, 2014 ​ ​ ● Sarah Rudell Beach Writer, mother, teacher, and blogger at LeftBrainBuddha.com ​ ​ We know mindfulness is good for us. Mindfulness allows us to be present in our parenting, ​ ​ choosing a skillful response, instead of succumbing to our visceral reactions. Mindfulness is also good for our kids. There is an emerging body of research that indicates ​ ​ ​ ​ mindfulness can help children improve their abilities to pay attention, to calm down when they are upset and to make better decisions. In short, it helps with emotional regulation and cognitive focus. Do I even need to ask if you want that for your kids? ​ ​ So where do we start? How can we teach these important skills to our children? First things first... Establish your own practice. You would have trouble teaching your children ballet if you had ​ never danced. To authentically teach mindfulness to your children, you need to practice it yourself. You can start slowly with a meditation practice of just five to 10 minutes a day. Find ways to incorporate mindfulness into your daily activities. Don't let this step intimidate you -- you're probably practicing a lot of mindful habits already! ​ ​ Keep it simple.
