Teaching Plan #1: How I look when I'm... There were many emotions throughout the book, including anger (when Fox made Raisin upset), sibling fights, and happiness and love.

Jessie Elliot's last summer before high school is an interesting one. She gets abandoned by a best friend, has a crush on a boy, and she is undeniably "uncool". How will Jessie make it through her summer?
Teaching Idea #1: Fear in a Hat. Jessie talks about how she is afraid of almost everything. She gets afraid when she gets caught trespassing. This activity is good for older kids; they write their fears down and put them in a hat. Another classmate will read their fear, and then talk about their understanding of the fear. It is a good icebreaker activity.
http://www.icebreakers.ws/medium-group/fear-in-a-hat.html
http://wilderdom.com/games/descriptions/FearInAHat.html
Teaching Idea #2: Discussion. It is important to discuss with teens that friends do not always get along. Maybe some students can share times they've had disagreements with their friends, and how they fixed it, like when Jessie and her best friend, Julie reunited after a fight.

At the end of the song, all of the moves from each verse are combined. Kids love to follow simple instructions like clap your hands, stomp your feet, etc.
Teaching Idea #1: As it is easy to see, this is a lively, fun song for kids to see. Obviously, dancing to this song is a very good warm up or stretch out for kids. It could even be sang and acted out together between activities to allow students to stretch out and focus their minds. The more the song is sang and acted out, the easier the kids will be able to do the combination of moves at the end.
Teaching Idea #2: This website actually shows a different way to sing this song, and it is simplified so that ESL students can learn them easily. It also sings about different emotions other than just happy. http://supersimplelearning.com/songs/original-series/one/if-youre-happy/]]> 2016-11-14 03:30:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mickaelaatkins/q6yukdaqx2rn/wish/137258795 mickaelaatkins https://padlet.com/mickaelaatkins/q6yukdaqx2rn/wish/137260081 This poem encompasses the theme of my text set. Recognizing emotions, and trying your best to display them in safe and healthy ways.
Teaching Idea #1: Again, repetition is good for young children, it helps them remember. Reciting this poem would help remind kids to use their words. Upon the first time reading it together, the class would have a discussion about how important it is to use our words, and the kids could have the chance to share times that they have had to use their words with a friend or sibling. This site talks about how important repetition is. http://www.readingbrightstart.org/articles-for-parents/lets-repetition-important-learning/
Teaching Idea #2: The kids could write their own poems about feelings, or just focus on one feeling. This website provides many different kinds of poetry guides for second graders. http://www.readingbrightstart.org/articles-for-parents/lets-repetition-important-learning/]]> 2016-11-14 03:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mickaelaatkins/q6yukdaqx2rn/wish/137260081 mickaelaatkins https://padlet.com/mickaelaatkins/q6yukdaqx2rn/wish/137262831 Author: Tessa Court

This video gives many different examples of feelings, both physical and mental. This is a possible topic to discuss with the class; what feelings are physical, and what feelings are emotional.
Teaching Idea #1: Emotion Stories. Faces from the video can be related to the students, and students can have the opportunity to share stories involving different emotions. After sharing, the class as a whole or in partners could come up with small stories relating to each of the feelings mentioned.

There are all types of emotions that are talked about, and certain situations provided that can help kids learn how to handle their emotions. 
Teaching Idea: I would have my students go through this website, afterwards sharing something they found interesting, or let them tell stories that they were reminded of from the website. ]]> 2016-11-14 18:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mickaelaatkins/q6yukdaqx2rn/wish/137488212 mickaelaatkins https://padlet.com/mickaelaatkins/q6yukdaqx2rn/wish/137490700 While this saying does come from a song, it is also seen and said in many different places. I have personally seen many shirts with the saying on it.
Teaching Idea: The class could sing the song, and then talk about why being happy is better than being worried, and overall what the saying means. The first website listed is for students learning ESL. It turns out this song can really help students with some vocab.
