Description

This lesson and activity is based on the circle of control, practicing the concept of what I can and can’t control! Students sort and discuss 75 relatable scenarios (with 5 blank to customize!) onto a sorting mat with balloons. The mat references the idea of “letting go” of the things that cannot be controlled. After sorting and discussing scenarios and a poster for reference, students will complete a graphic organizer and can take a notebook aid to remind them of strategies they can use when they are feeling out of control. All materials also come in a digital version using Google Slides, which allows it to be used in a classroom setting in addition to individual or group settings. These activities may last 2-3+ sessions. *Some scenarios may be too mature for some populations and can easily be removed. I have also included 3 in relation to PBIS.
