Lesson With Mrs. Kurcoba
Last week Mrs. Kurcoba came into our class for a guidance lesson on worrying/anxiety. Mrs. Kurcoba read the book, "Wilma Jean the Worry Machine." The students identified things that worry them, then sorted the worries into things they can control, things they can control with help and things they can not control. The students also had the opportunity to make worry jars. These were sent home with your child. The worry jar is for someone to write down their worries and to put in the jar. About a week later, you read the worries and decide if you are still thinking of that worry, how you can handle the worry or if it is even a worry anymore. Families can come up with fun ways to get rid of the worries. (ex. put them in a shredder, burn them in a fire pit, rip them up, etc.)
