Description
Teach students about the Size of Problems, or Big Deal vs. Little Deal and have them practice different skills, such as breathing techniques with this fun Candy Land Board game! Students who would benefit from this topic are generally struggling with their Emotional Regulation and behaviors in the classroom.
Its perfect for students who tend to over-react to small sized problems, such as losing their pencil, having someone sit in their chair, or feelings of frustration with schoolwork. These are the students that learning this topic can help in your counseling sessions.
The prompts included can help you, the counselor or teacher, to facilitate discussions about the size of problems and have a solution-oriented discussion about how to resolve a variety of issues without an overly emotional reaction.
