Please provide 2+ examples of student voice on the kit's impact on them A student who was feeling angry and had had an unproductive morning began working through the book (self care, self belief) in the afternoon. I was a total reset as he was able to see his strengths and identify why he was feeling the way he was. He was able to move forward a positive mindset. Several children while working through the book were able to clearly share aspects of how they feel according to their self belief, self awareness etc which opened up some fantastic discussions and helped me to gain a deeper understanding of how they feel.

Which kit components were the most impactful and why? The book identifying where students are on the scale according to different areas (self care etc)

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? A greater understanding of other's emotions and how we can help them (and ourselves)

“This is a very worthwhile kit to work through with your class. In particular, the book the children work through is very useful as it helps children identify their emotions and their ability to be resilient, whether it be their self belief, self care, self awareness or self control. The pack of suggestions that children can independently use are also great as they are relevant, easy to understand and useful. At the least, after using this kit children will have a greater awareness of their strengths and their understanding of themselves. Further more, children have the ability to work on areas or emotions with useful and relevent tips and are able to help each other as they navigate day to day emotional challenges.”

“My school has started using an online well-being app the students use to record their well being every day. I used this and then tried the tokens. The tokens were a lot quicker and didn't involve getting devices out! The students enjoyed the recharge mat also...although some of my (year 7) boys said it didn't work.”

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? Definitely highlighted their own version of being special people.

“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 "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."

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? as above

“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.

What impact has this kit had on your classroom community? This kit has developed a positive class culture. Students are looking out for each other and we know that we need to be respectful of each others feelings. They take it very seriously.

“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.”
