"I could think about how I was really feeling in the mornings before I put the token in the box - sometimes I felt grumpy and tired, but realised it wasn't really 'red', more yellow." "I liked the cards and class discussions. It helped me understand why my friend was sad and how I could help her."
Which kit components were the most impactful and why?
The zones and cards (as mentioned above). I will keep using them/use them again in the New Year. I think they will be useful starting a new class, and help me get to know the students better.
