Make a splash in the classroom and group counseling sessions with these interdisciplinary lessons. Educators, counselors, and parents can use these activities to help elementary school-aged children develop the social and emotional skills they need for success in and out of the classroom!
Inspired by the amazing marine life surrounding the Raja Ampat Reef in the western Pacific Ocean, this guide includes five entertaining short stories, written in rhyme and featuring lovable animals as the main characters. The animals include a Mandarin fish, epaulette shark, nudibranch, brittle star, and disco clam. Each embodies and brings to life one of these essential skills: accepting yourself, sticking up for yourself, using problem-solving, reporting other youths' behavior, and compromising with others.
The stories are supplemented by fun, engaging activities that further support skill development and academic growth. The activities allow kids to explore art, movement, science and technology, writing, math, music, coloring, and structured group discussion. The variety of options allows multiple ways for children to enhance their understanding of a skill while also growing academically.
All the activities can be individualized or modified to accommodate different needs, capabilities, and learning styles. In addition, they can be blended into existing academic lesson plans, assigned as homework, or used as stand-alone lessons. Some are specifically designed for collaboration and group work, while others can be done independently. For ease and convenience, every activity includes a list of materials, step-by-step instructions, and supporting documents, such as worksheets, answer keys, and handouts.
A special code inside the guide allows users to display or download a printable, full-color PDF student version of Under the Sea. All five stories, plus color photos and illustrations of the animals, trivia questions, and a helpful glossary are included. The code also allows users to display or download additional worksheets, answer keys, and handouts.
Under the Sea, Lessons for Life is a two-volume series that is an ideal companion to the popular Basic Social Skills for Youth and Teaching Social Skills to Youth, Fourth Edition, both available from Boys Town Press. Under the Sea Volume 1 featured a dugong, bottlenose dolphin, blue-ringed octopus, manta ray, and hawksbill turtle to highlight the skills of managing stress, using whole-body listening, resolving conflict, expressing empathy, and making friends.
