mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:05:39 UTC

Pretend play begins, will imitate what adults or other children do (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:06:44 UTC

Will start to be interested in having other kids in their space, but will play alongside them (parallel play) rather than with them (cooperative play) (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:12:10 UTC

Will be kind and caring spontaneously and will start wanting to play with kids and separate from their caregivers more easily (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:13:46 UTC

Will engage in pretend play, but may sometimes confuse real with "make-believe" (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:14:37 UTC

Tantrums may still happen especially if their are abrupt changes in routine or they don't get what they want (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:21:29 UTC

Will test boundaries, but still want to please and help out (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:22:51 UTC

Will understand what it feels like to be embarrassed, and are more aware of other people's perspectives (Morin, 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-03 23:24:17 UTC

Teachers need to model gentleness, and try to sooth and cherish their young students to help toddlers learn that their feelings are understood (Honig & Wittmer, 2017).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-04 16:29:41 UTC

Help toddlers define their feelings using emotion talk "mad, sad" are easy words for toddlers to say (Honig & Wittmer, 2017).

Make emotional vocabulary learning into a game, each pick an emotion (sad, mad, happy) and dramatically act out what that emotion looks like (PBS KIDS, n.d.-a). As the child learns those simple words, add more complex words like (excited, surprised, frustrated) (PBS KIDS, n.d.-a).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-04 16:38:40 UTC

Teach simple strategies to help toddlers learn how to self-regulate, "When I am mad and I want to roar, take a deep breath and count to four!" (PBS KIDS, n.d.-a). These are simple and memorable strategies young children can use to help them self-regulate and make good choices (PBS KIDS, n.d.-a).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-04 16:40:42 UTC

Acknowledge and give praise when the child self-regulates on their own (They were tempted to respond one way, but were able to resist and use a self-regulation technique) (PBS KIDS, n.d.-a).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-04 16:42:26 UTC

Make these simple feelings faces to help discuss emotions, what they feel like, and what strategies we can use to deal with a specific emotion we are feeling

Circle Back Technique

mariahbriann — 2024-04-04 16:50:01 UTC

After the child has calmed down, circle back and discuss what happened, how did they feel?, why did they feel that way? Make sure the child knows that it is okay to feel the way that they did, and that everyone feels that way sometimes (PBS KIDS, n.d.-b).

Distract, Redirect, and and Change the Situation

mariahbriann — 2024-04-04 16:53:14 UTC

Distraction and redirection can help preschool aged students regain their focus and calm down, waiting patiently for a toy or turn is sometimes still hard to do at this age (PBS KIDS, n.d.-b). Engage them in a song or point out something else in the room they can play with or use.

Practice, Practice, Practice!

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 15:50:10 UTC

In order for young children to develop the resiliency needed to persevere through the ups and downs that accompany learning, they need lots of practice (PBS KIDS, n.d.-b). Step back and let your students make mistakes and provide encouragement to keep trying, celebrate small victories (PBS KIDS, n.d.-b).

Start Small

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 15:57:54 UTC

Be aware of the signs that your young students are ready to try doing simple tasks on their own, and respond positively to this growth which will help in building the foundation for your young students to become capable and responsible children, allow them to make mistakes, get frustrated, and try their hand at problem solving to help build their self-confidence, before you jump in to help (PBS KIDS, n.d.-c).

Read Aloud

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 16:31:37 UTC

Books are great resources for teaching kids to identify what feelings look like, and can teach them to connect their feelings to other people's feelings (PBS KIDS, n.d.-d). When an emotional event happens in the book, stop and discuss with your students how the character is feeling and why, and help them draw connections between what the character is experiencing and their own life (PBS KIDS, n.d.-d).

Practice Cognitive Control

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 16:38:12 UTC

Children this age can develop their concentration and attention skills by reading books, playing games that require attention to detail, building more difficult block structures or doing complex puzzles, and playing music, all activities that increase the students capacity for self-control (PBS KIDS, n.d.-d).

Reframe Negative Self-Talk

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 16:44:46 UTC

Children this age can self-sabotage through negative-self talk "I can't" or "I am bad at" phrases don't help with a child's self-confidence (PBS KIDS, n.d.-e). When you hear a student use these phrases, reframe it and teach them how to spin the negative into a realistic positive, instead of "I am bad at math" say "I am working really hard to understand math, and I can always ask for help if I get stuck" (PBS KIDS, n.d.-e).

Never Do for a Student What a Student Can Do for Themselves

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 16:53:28 UTC

Be aware of your students abilities, and identify what tasks they can do on their own (PBS KIDS, 2020). Let your students take their own time to do something you know they are capable of instead of trying to rush them through it, finishing and accomplishing things on their own leads to the development of a higher self-confidence.

"Self-regulation is a skills that allows people to manage their emotions, behavior, and body movement when they're faced with a tough situation. It also allows them to do that while staying focused and paying attention" (Morin, n.d.).

Often confused with self-control, but the two are defined differently, self-control is the daily skill of controlling and inhibiting impulses while "...self-regulation refers to the way people steer their behavior to achieve specific goals" (Herdon, 2022).

Example

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:18:26 UTC

Make a goal "I want to eat healthier" so you change your behavior to make better food choices and eat more fruits and vegetables to achieve this goal

Example

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:19:32 UTC

Goal "I want to have my homework done by Friday afternoon so that my weekends are free" work on homework and assignments throughout the week so that you can get a little done each day and not leave all the work to be done on the weekend.

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:34:16 UTC

Provide a positive classroom environment that feels like a safe space that celebrates individual strengths, and try not to address problem behavior in front of the whole class, instead observe to determine what caused the behavior and then discuss it with the student after they have calmed down (Parrish, 2018)

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:36:06 UTC

Set clear expectations: use daily schedules, classroom procedures, and create an established routine to help students know what to expect and to create an environment that feels safe and structured (Parrish, 2018).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:39:35 UTC

Students need to be able to access the content of the curriculum and they need skills like the ability to organize their materials, stay on task, manage their time, read with comprehension, and be able to retain and practice what is being taught to use later on graded activities (Parrish, 2018). Teach your students study skills and strategies that will help them become independent learners, thus developing self-regulation skills (Parrish, 2018).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:41:46 UTC

Model and practice appropriate behavior as you would through direct instruction when giving assignment instructions (Parrish, 2018). Use "Think alouds" and "role-playing" to act out different ways to handle what can be viewed as a difficult situation such as a change in schedule (Parrish, 2018).

At home, parents should strive to create an environment of trust, respect, and support, and remember "...that modeling "emotionally intelligent" behavior at home is the first step in nurturing emotionally intelligent children" (Edutopia, 2001).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:47:33 UTC

Be a good listener, and a safe place where your children know it's okay to be vulnerable, make sure their feelings are validated and help them problem-solve when needed.

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:49:21 UTC

Children learn a lot about relationships through observing the behavior of their parents, model the behavior you seek such as apologizing when you are wrong and treat other's with kindness and respect (Edutopia, 2001).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-05 17:53:56 UTC

Nurture your child's self-esteem through giving them age appropriate-responsibilities, allowing them to make age-appropriate choices, and show your appreciation when your child does a good job or completes a task/goal (Edutopia, 2001). A child who has a good sense of self is more well-adjusted, is happier, and will do better in school (Edutopia, 2001).

Prenatal stress can lead to a wide range of adverse outcomes that will affect the child throughout their life. Negative outcomes such as emotional dysregulation, neurodevelopmental disorders, mood disorders, cognitive deficits, and an increased risk of psychopathological conditions are all heightened when the mother is under stress during pregnancy (Jagtap et al., 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-07 16:35:52 UTC

Maternal stress during gestation physically changes the infants brain structure and overall functionality (Jagtap et al., 2023).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-07 16:48:17 UTC

Early experiences, such as when a baby fusses and cries, and how their adult responds to those emotions will define how the child and then the adolescent anticipates or views their environment. Parents who respond to their infant or child with comfort during each of these experiences strengthens the expectations of the child and adds to how their brains will construct perceptions of the social and emotional world they live in (Lally & Mangione, 2017). Those early perceptions play a role as to how babies and then later adolescents understand their environment, engage in learning, and how they will relate to others (Lally & Mangione, 2017). When babies have mostly positive experiences, children and adolescents will perceive the messages and behaviors of others in a more positive way while also being more motivated to explore their world, including new people and things (Lally & Mangione, 2017). On the other side, when babies have repeated negative early experiences, as children and adolescents they tend to expect that all behaviors and messages they are receiving from others or their environment will be negative, will be less inclined to explore their world, and will perceive new experiences with others in negative ways (Lally & Mangione, 2017).

mariahbriann — 2024-04-07 16:50:45 UTC

The early relationships babies form, and whether they are largely positive or negative will inform how the child and then later the adolescent responds to and manages stress (Lally & Mangione, 2017).

The status of a women's uterus where the embryo will develop is affected by her choices starting as early as 3 months prior to conception (Lally & Mangione, 2017). One conception occurs brain development starts and the fetal environment (the womb) can be positively or negatively influenced by the condition of the mother in the 3 months prior to conception (Lally & Mangione, 2017). Brain growth during the fetal period is occurring more rapidly than during another other time, and the kind and amount of nutrients, the languages and voices heard, and the stress experienced will be used by the fetus to help shape their brains and to anticipate the experiences they will have when they are born (Lally & Mangione, 2017).

This feelings chart would be easy to make and implement in the classroom to help student identify their feelings, what made them feel that way, and come up with a solution if needed.
