RULER Anchors

Mood Meter
Meta Moment
Blueprint
Charter
Mood Meter:

Allows us to recognize how we feel, how to


communicate (how we feel) effectively and
regulate our emotions.
Meta Moment:

The time between when you feel something


and when you do something. The meta
moment allows us to control our impulses
and make the best choices for action.
Blueprint:

Is a series of questions used to solve


emotion-laden problems between two or
more people.
Charter

A Classroom Charter is a promise that teachers


and students create together for how they want to
feel in the classroom, what actions will promote
those feelings, and agreed upon actions for how to
prevent and manage conflict.
Discussion questions:iscu
As you reflect on your education (elementary, middle, high
school and post-secondary), can you think of a time when
you felt valued by your teacher?
What words would you use to describe how you felt (in that
classroom, with that teacher)?
Do you consider how you want students to feel in your
classroom? What do you do? What does this look like in your
classroom(s)?
Three questions will guide your charter:

1. How do we want to feel in our school?

2. What can we each do in order to have these


feelings more often?

3. How will we handle uncomfortable feelings and


conflicts when they arise?
Brainstorm Feelings

*Everyone quietly thinks to themselves about how they


want to feel (at school/Hammond)?
Discuss and use post-its to jot down the feeling words
that are important to each of you (ultimately, each
member will share with the group; the group should
identify…...
Choose your top 3-5 feeling words to put on your
charter.
Actions That Support These Feelings

Choose one feeling word at a time and discuss actions that


will support each of these feelings.
Examples:
Calm = we will use quiet voices in the morning
Heard = make eye contact and pause to listen to each other

Record 2-3 actions to go with each feeling.


Handling Uncomfortable Feelings & Conflicts

Take a minute and think about a conflict that may come up in your
classroom.

What will you do when this happens?

Example: if someone is in a bad mood, give them space or let them take a
moment for themselves.

Come up with one action to go with each conflict or feeling.
