EVERFI


I was introduced to EVERFI through Donors Choose, where we participated in The Compassion Project.  It's a wonderful digital resource for educators, parents, and students.  Below is more information for anyone interested.      

Parents,
EVERFI has interactive digital game-based programs, filled with lessons on the skills students need for life — skills in social-emotional learning, health and wellness, financial capability, and career readiness —all of which students can access from home. These resources are always available at no cost to our schools. Instructions for students to get started are below
STEP 1: Go to https://everfi.com/k-12/parent-remote-learning/, click "Get Access" then “Find Your School and Register”. Search for California then your child's school. 
STEP 2: Click “Next” and fill in the fields. Students will be asked to create a username & password (write this down!). 
Once their login is created, students will have access to all courses for their grade band (Elementary, Middle & High).

Anxiety

The Counseling Teacher has a wonderful blog post about "How to Relieve Anxiety During Times of Uncertainty."  I've seen her image below floating around social media recently and I agree with others that it's a wonderful visual tool to share at this time.
