Back to School!
I am SO excited to be back with you in school- no matter what that looks like! Remote learning, hybrid learning and more, this year will be like no other school year we have had. I am here to listen to you about the challenges you have faced, how you are feeling and to process some of those BIG feelings we are all experiencing. No matter how long the storm lasts, the sun will always come out! We will learn, play and do our best to bounce back to being even stronger and smarter than ever!

Big Bird's advice to kids during coronavirus pandemic
Right now a lot of things are different than what we are used to - and that can be very hard!! It can be helpful to focus on the things that we CAN control. (Like wearing our mask, making healthy choices, staying 6 feet apart from classmates when possible, washing our hands, doing our best in our school work, choosing to be kind and more!) You may not be able to control certain situations, but you can control your reaction.

Focusing on what you CAN control can help you to feel less overwhelmed and more calm. This takes practice, so keep using that self-talk in your head to practice.
