between games sending up representatives

to talk “strategy” and come up with a team name and/or a team chant.

Flocabulary: Self Compassion
All week we have been working on self compassion by acknowledging all of things
about ourselves that are positive. But today we are going to talk about what we can do
when the negative thoughts come from within
Flocabulary:
● Watch the video all the way though
● Pull up lyrics and play the video again and let the kids sing along
Questions (Before or after the video):
● What does it mean to show compassion?
● What are some ways you show compassion to others?
● Do you show yourself compassion? (give examples: When you get an answer
wrong on your test how do you react?)
Activity: Pop the negative though:
● Dismiss students back to their seats
● Explain that we are going to be practicing how to pop the negative thoughts in
our heads
● Make sure students are in their seats before you spread the balloons out
● Allow students to come up in groups of 2 to 3 allow them to pick up two balloons
they feel resonates with them
● Let them pop the balloons and read the positive affirmation inside
● Once they read them they can go back to their seats and the next group can go
up
● And they will keep going until all the balloons are popped
