Look Who’s Been Spotted: Entirely Elementary School Counseling
Are you looking for some great and original ideas for your school counseling program? ย If so, be sure to check out Dr. Susan Fuller’s blog Entirely Elementary School Counseling! ย I am always waiting to see what she will post next. You can see one of her creations, the “Be” display, ย on the wall just outside my office. ย 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 Toolboxย and Hunter and His Amazing Remote Control.ย ย The very first lesson I adapted was Dr. Fuller’s lesson using one of my favorite books titledย One by Kathryn Otoshi. ย 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. ย I especially like how she tied in the discussion of people in history who have made a difference. ย 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. ย One idea I LOVE that I mentioned earlier is the “Be” wall she shared. ย This went along with her theme for this school year which is “Be Yourself.” ย 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. ย I have gotten so many compliments about my display. ย 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. ย Dr. Fuller recently included an awesome post, Winterized Small Groups- Part 1, where she explains in great detail how she organizes her small groups. ย 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. ย 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. ย Be sure to check it out. ย I am certain you’ll find several great ideas to incorporate into your school counseling program. ย This blog does not disappoint!
Stick around! ย You can follow Savvy School Counselor with free email updates. ย As always, I’d love to hear from you. ย What ideas have you “borrowed” from Dr. Fuller’s great blog?
