How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? Yes I think so, although with it being a crazy end of term four we probably didnt put in a huge amount of time with it. They enjoyed the cards and booklets.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? It was great especially with the red paper as it allowed them to write about how they were feeling etc instead of having that initial conversation. Was easier for them to open up about things.

“Awesome resource to teach kids about themselves, their emotions and the support they have around them. They got better at filling out the booklet and using the wall display. Found it a bit of getting used to as we have done a lot around Zones of Regulation so kids weren't used to the colours for the wall display but still enjoyed the concept of it.”

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Yes. We get to monitor how they are feeling and then discuss with them.

“This kit is amazing. The students love the cards and the self check ins and it really supports conversations around wellness. Students are definitely looking out for each other more and showing more care, empathy and self awareness through the activities. The kits resources are great and so easy to use. Highly recommended!”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? Self awareness and talking about it being ok to experience the emotions you feel. Sharing normality is the diversity of emotions.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? We have always been open but this has taken normalising these conversations to the next level.

“Our use of the kit was hindered by Level 3 lockdown for most of Term 4 which was a real shame. However it was a perfect tool to return with as it helped our students focus on their whare tapa wha and get in tune with themselves. Because of the late start we are still working through it and will continue to next year as I can see the benefit to students.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? The exploring what makes you special books were great in getting the students to think about adults who influence them and which values they pass on. It started an interesting discussion about values and how adults influence/impact our lives as we grow up

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? My students are probably on the older side for using the charging station - I think it would be very effective with a younger group. We set it up slightly differently - more open discussion around the cards (boosting and shrinking). It was great!

“I have a Year 8 class and they really enjoyed the discussions we had based on the shrink and boost cards. Some really useful suggestions! Great discussions around building resilience. I asked the students for feedback on the kit and they said they really enjoyed it. The resources/display were bright and colourful, easy to follow and had lots of good tips/suggestions.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? I think the videos were great for showing students that they're not alone in having self doubts. The check-in cards system also taught them that having a bad day is completely normal.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? The completely confidential token system was really effective in my class. Through the system I had many students tell me that they weren't feeling great, and why, but also that they didn't need anything from me, they just wanted to let me know.

“I really loved this kit. It fitted perfectly with a lot of wellbeing concepts I'd taught throughout the year and gave me a new and really easy way of checking in with the students throughout this last term. The lessons around body image fitted in perfectly with the sexuality education unit I was teaching alongside this.”

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Students didn’t get super involved in the tokens unfortunately but seem comfortable sharing with me.

“The students enjoyed working their way through the booklet through the weeks we worked on this. They were more engaged in some tasks more than others. Taking the books home for parents to add to and work through was interesting and they enjoyed sharing these responses.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? They've learnt more about their identity and their strengths, which helps build self-confidence in who they are.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? We didn't get to use the check in station and cards due to lockdown and then busy schedule but we had some interesting conversations about our feelings and how our body experiences them. It actually helped student to student conversations about their stre

“This kit provided a great opportunity to identify the feelings we experience and opened meaningful conversations on how the body reacts to those feelings. The activities on how we feel in the inside as opposed to how people see us on the outside were eye-opening for some students. I loved the question about where the children's name came from. So many of them took the question home and learnt more about themselves and their identity. The circle of influence was a novel idea for my students and a good opportunity to reflect on the values our trusted adults pass on to us. I'm sure that the letters from parents will be cherished by those who received one. Some students were quite moved reading them. Asking for parents to be involved and students asking questions at home helped strengthen the relationship between home and school. We found the barometer pages confusing to fill in but the idea that a strength can also be a weakness was very interesting. Lockdown unfortunately stopped us in our tracks as we were about to use the check in station, but I can see myself using it in the future. All in all, a good kit that helps children learn about who they are and helps build their self-esteem and emotional resilience. This was the first kit I've used and I found it a bit difficult at first to navigate the teacher guide.”
