Love teachers and students are currently using TOOLBOX™, a set of skills and practices that support children in understanding and managing their own emotional, social, and academic success. The basis of TOOLBOX is a set of 12 simple yet powerful tools (see attached). These tools are helping students and teachers deal with emotions, improve relationships and stay focused at school. They can be just as useful at home! Please ask your student to show you how they use the tools.
TOOLBOX was developed by a non-profit called Dovetail Learning. You can learn more about TOOLBOX at the Toolbox Project Website.
You can also download these two PDF documents for more information:
We especially encourage you to watch the videos of kids explaining the tools, below. They are inspiring!
