Coronavirus Handout - Counselor Keri - For Kids!

Second Steps is a Social Emotional Curriculum taught by school counselors to help students gain life skills by promoting social and emotional competence and self regulation in environments beyond the school. The company has released many videos, activities and resources for use at home during the time of school closure. Your students are very familiar with this program as it is used in our monthly classroom counseling lessons.
