How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? The students in my class have become more willing to take supervised risks in their daily lives and are now more open to having conversations about how they might be feeling and how this effects their work ethic.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? The daily check in has become the heart of our classroom. The children are very diligent and respectful when completing this. I believe it has helped to create positive relationships with those in my class that just need a little bit of reassurance.

“The Self Resilience kit has proved to be a worthwhile and highly effective tool to use along side out classroom program. We have not yet completed all aspects of the kit but what we have explored together has allowed the children to gain a greater understanding of themselves as learners.”

“Really loved exploring at the potential of this kit with our whole Senior group (108 kids). A shame we haven't yet used it...very much hope to do so when school returns with a full compliment of kids.”

“There was a lot of reading for the year 4 children. Lots of unpacking of vocab. The text in the note books was also very small. It seemed more geared to older children - our class is 7 and 8 years old. Also some of the questions were such that the children felt embarassed when answering them. Such as questions about their family dynamics, people they look up to, asking caregivers to write letters to the students, and some of the questions that took positive relationships within a whanau as the normal.”

“While we didn't get a chance to fully utilise all the elements of the kit, the students loved having their own special booklets and the quality of resources provided was exceptional. The letters that parents/whanau wrote to their children were heartwarming and the children really appreciated them.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? Children having a daily check in is helpful for those children that look fine on the outside but are like wee ducks paddling furiously under the water, dealing with some big issues in their lives.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? It is a safe conversation starter.

“This kit is a fantastic asset to a classroom. Even before the global pandemic, resilience was something of a focus in my school and among many teachers in other schools. The ability to encourage students to analyse their feelings (is this a big or little problem/situation?), decide ways to cope, gain help when needed or develop confidence in solving a situation independently.”

“Loved the idea behind the kit. The journals and token system were great. Display looked pretty and students were very interested in it. Would like to continue with it when we return this term.”

“Thanks for the kit, it had some awesome resources. We loved the booklets. Unfortunately due to having to move to a new learning space and then the lock down we are yet to fully use it. But intend to use it when we are back up and running.”
