Look Who’s Been Spotted: Entirely Elementary School Counseling
Are you looking for some great and original ideas for your school counseling program? Â If so, be sure to check out Dr. Susan Fuller’s blog Entirely Elementary School Counseling! Â I am always waiting to see what she will post next. You can see one of her creations, the “Be” display, Â on the wall just outside my office. Â I want to take this time to share with you why this blog is one of my favorites!
- Entirely Elementary School Counseling contains several great lesson ideas including the Coping With Conflict Toolbox and Hunter and His Amazing Remote Control.  The very first lesson I adapted was Dr. Fuller’s lesson using one of my favorite books titled One by Kathryn Otoshi.  I like how she talked about sharing this picture book with 5th graders at the end of the school year which is exactly what I did.  I especially like how she tied in the discussion of people in history who have made a difference.  I am looking forward to using the book with my fifth grade friends again this year.
- Dr. Fuller is also very creative and shares several ideas on her site. Be sure to check out her Motivational Medals and her Button Bucket. Â One idea I LOVE that I mentioned earlier is the “Be” wall she shared. Â This went along with her theme for this school year which is “Be Yourself.” Â I’ve said before in another post, I was so appreciative that she shared the words and signs on her blog for all to use. Â I have gotten so many compliments about my display. Â I am always sure to mention the awesome counselor who shared it so that I could create it!
- Entirely Elementary School Counseling also has great ideas for small groups. Â Dr. Fuller recently included an awesome post, Winterized Small Groups- Part 1, where she explains in great detail how she organizes her small groups. Â This post has so much information, and it really made me want to rethink my approach to the small groups I conduct outside of Lunch Bunch. Â The “Part 1” in the title indicates there is more great information to come, and I am looking forward to it.
What I’ve mentioned here is just a sampling of what can be found on Dr. Fuller’s wonderful blog. Â Be sure to check it out. Â I am certain you’ll find several great ideas to incorporate into your school counseling program. Â This blog does not disappoint!
Stick around! Â You can follow Savvy School Counselor with free email updates. Â As always, I’d love to hear from you. Â What ideas have you “borrowed” from Dr. Fuller’s great blog?
