Do your students struggle to tell the difference between small issues and major challenges? Whether it’s an empty drink bottle, a broken pencil or an untied shoelace, young children often have difficulty understanding what problems deserve a big reaction and which ones don’t.
This engaging social-emotional learning activity for elementary students is perfect for small groups or independent work! With relatable scenarios like 'You came last in a game' and 'Fire in the school' this sorting activity will help your kindergarten, first grade or second grade students learn to assess problems more accurately and develop emotional regulation, critical thinking skills and social skills
