(draft) SEL 3 by SPED Urban Teachers Baltimore https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty Boundaries are rules that tell us what we can and can’t do. There are three basic kinds of boundaries: Rigid, Clear and Fuzzy. For this activity, you will do 2 things. First, you will silently and mentally try to sort the scenarios. Then, individually, you will answer one of the questions. Activity adapted from: https://www.scholastic.com/content/dam/teachers/articles/migrated-files-in-body/setting_boundries.pdf en-us 2020-03-12 18:55:29 UTC 2020-10-23 15:46:01 UTC hello@padlet.com https://spartanoracle.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/boundaries-lir.png Rigid: These are strict and do not change. You might not know why these rules are rules . . .but you do know that you have to follow them! spedbaltimore https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459464422 2020-03-12 18:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459464422 Clear: You understand these rules. Clear boundaries can change, too. Somethings that were “out of bounds”when you were younger might be okay now. spedbaltimore https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459464615 2020-03-12 18:58:34 UTC https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459464615 Fuzzy: These are “rules” that aren’t really rules at all. A fuzzy boundary might be one that says that anything goes. Or it might be a rule that is strict one day, but totally ignored the next day. spedbaltimore https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459464872 2020-03-12 18:58:55 UTC https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459464872 Silent Thinking Activity: Sort the following scenarios into one of the 3 categories in your mind: Rigid, Clear or Fuzzy. spedbaltimore https://padlet.com/spedbaltimore/iwlpgoudk4ty/wish/459467750
