CLASSROOM LESSONS
Second Step Curriculum - Bullying Prevention, Protective Behaviors, Social and Emotional Learning
SMALL GROUPS
Small groups are an important part of the counseling program in the Northwood School District. The purpose of small groups is to allow the students to acquire information and skills that will help them become more successful in the school setting. In addition, it gives me an opportunity to get to know the students better!
Small groups have 3-6 students with similar needs. Groups may be focused on Social Emotional Learning, Self-Regulation, Anger Management, among others. Students can be referred for groups via teacher recommendation or parent request.
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
Individual counseling assists students in identifying problems, causes, possible consequences, and solutions. Areas that may be addressed in individual counseling can include: problem-solving strategies, interpersonal relationships, educational planning, conflict resolution, family change, anger management, and crisis intervention.
Students are often referred for individual counseling by parents, teachers, or themselves.
