Not all of this pack was easy for our group of special needs students to understand. However when we picked certain aspects out and simplified the language and tasks, our students were so excited to use it. Particularly the forms that went home that their parents filled in - the look of delight and pride as we shared their family's thoughts about them was so delightful to see.

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them 1. I really like the charging station. Sometimes i cant think of ideas of things to do to make me feel better, but when i go to the wall i can be reminded. 2. I really like how we are thinking more about how we treat each other. I am trying to be nicer.
Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The red slips from the charging station - giving students a way to express how they were feeling easily. The token and token box - a discret way of telling the teacher that a check in is needed.

How has this kit helped develop student resilience? Students are more accepting of everyone being different and unique - including themselves. We have learnt that we are all going to react to a situation in a number of different ways, and we cannot always control that - but we can control what we do after.

I think this is a great Kit to launch a more focussed overall well-being approach in the classroom. The charging station is visible - so a constant reminder to check in with ourselves, with others and to show kindness.

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them "It helps me to feel good when I help Izzy (student with special needs)." "I liked talking to my family about the people they trusted when they were a kid and the values they gained from them."

The resources in this kit are both engaging and insightful. The token 'check in' is a perfect way to quickly see how students are feeling but goes deeper than this by providing tips and strategies to help yourself and/or help others power up by paying it forward. This links in perfectly to the prosocial behaviours lessons within this programme which are super, super helpful in a modern classroom. The students enjoyed filling out their individual booklets, learning more about themselves along the way. Again, the content here provided a deeper understanding of how our behaviours power our self-confidence. This is done within the four areas; self-respect, self-belief, self-awareness and self-care and is cleverly linked using charging a battery as a metaphor. There are plenty of helpful tips here for students (and adults) to refer back to whenever we need to recharge.

Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them PB: The charging station was helpful to me personally with the suggestions from the green and orange envelopes. MC: I think its a good way to check in on how your doing. I like how the red zone has cards so you can write down how you are feeling. I really like the cards...you have to really think about what they are saying you could do. XM: I actually like it because you don't have to tell the teacher when you are in the red zone you can put it in the box. Sometimes its hard to tell the teacher your feelings.
Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The self charging station and the videos about the way people see themselves.
What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners? That they have control over the way others feel about themselves.

We were slow to set up the charging station but once it was up the students really took to it. We had a big talk about being respectful of the process and their tokens. We talked about confidentiality and being mindful of each other's feelings. Together we came up with a place for students to put their red feelings note if they needed it. We looked at the Dove videos around the same time that Life Education visited which reinforced what we learnt about reputation. As well as giving students ownership over their own feelings and how to deal with them this kit reinforced classroom culture.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? As above.
We enjoyed parts of the programme. The token box was a good way to start our day and make sure to check in with each tamaiti. We used the booklets and found our circle of influences. This was a tester for our kids and they had to talk to friends/family members to find out more. We used check my charge and over a short period of time I felt the kids open a little and share more about themselves. I did find the programme hard to unpack and I do think this was because I had just steeped into a new class. Some of the self image clips I felt I couldn't share with this particular class, as there are some immature students.

I have used this kit before and I continue to love it as a tool in my classroom. Students particularly engage with the self charging station and it is another tool in the kete to check in on how students are feeling. It has tied into our work around Wellbeing Wednesdays with meaningful content.
