Book Description: This turnkey curriculum creatively integrates lessons, stories, songs, movement and artwork to make it easy for any teacher or parent to implement. No prior teaching experience is needed! This curriculum is written with elementary age children in mind but can be adjusted to accommodate any age group. Each lesson or session is designed to introduce wellness techniques to encourage children to live a healthful life. Children learn to apply these empowering techniques in a safe, fun and interactive environment. Each class is structured in the following format. Movement Activity: Each class will open with a movement activity. Movement activity and song are provided. Story time/Lesson: Indigo Dreams: Garden of Wellness CD makes lesson time easy. The lessons and techniques are woven into each story or practice session. Discussion: Children and teacher/leader will discuss how they feel about the stories. Children will discuss how they should apply the techniques they have just learned and experienced to their own lives and real life situations. Conversation examples are provided. Creative activity: Each lesson includes an easy to do, creative activity designed to reinforce what they have just learned in class. Exit: Affirmations or compliments will be used as an exit tool for the rest of the semester. Certificate of Completion: Hand out to students for completing the Wellness Curriculum. Lesson One is based around and used with the story entitled The Perfect Club. This story demonstrates how everyone is special in their own way. Students learn about accepting others. The lesson discusses having your feelings hurt and hurting the feelings of others. Children have a chance to discuss how to handle social situations in a way that would not hurt feelings. Positive statements and role playing are used to encourage good social interaction. (i.e.: I encourage others. I treat my friends with respect, I make others feel welcome.) Lesson Two is based around and can be used with your choice of 2 practice sessions. Giving and receiving compliments are explored in this lesson. Bubble Blowing and Light Shield are two effective techniques that can be used to get rid of hurt or angry feelings. They can also be used for stress-management and relaxation. A creative compliment activity brings this lesson and your students together. Lesson Three is based around and used with a story entitled Caterpillar Choices. This story demonstrates how making healthy food choices can effect your mind and body. The lesson is designed to accept each others differences and encourage healthy food choices. A wellness pyramid (a new spin on the old food pyramid) is used to support this lesson and provide flexibility to include any food restrictions a particular family may observe. Affirmations are also used to encourage healthy food choices, exercise, and wellness. For Frequently Asked Questions visit StressFreeKids.com.
