The Children's Wellbeing Continuum
The Continuum (above) is an important tool used at Bridgewater PS to help children understand and express their feelings, while building skills to regulate their emotions. Each student is provided with their own copy to use throughout the year. They are also a key feature of The Resilience Project (TRP) sessions that students have weekly with Megan and myself.
Here's a short video that explains the Children's Wellbeing Continuum and its use.
