| This is something new that I've started in my individual counseling sessions. It serves a few purposes - it helps me gather data on how effective the sessions are, helps students self-reflect, and works as a discussion starter. My students have really taken to this check-in method and I've definitely noticed a positive change in their ability to reflect and process what is happening around them. My next step is to take the data from the year and see if the self-reflections match each student's behavior and overall performance. I print this check-in page on the back of my session summary form. That way, all of my notes for the session are in one place.

Love this!!!! I have my own notes form...but I printed the check-in form on card stock and laminated it. I have kids use bingo chips to mark how they are feeling in each category. Thanks for making this available!!!

do the kids object to the words bad or horrible? Very cute idea and looks simple to use! 7/5/2016 05:18:17 pm
Not that I've experienced. I try to make sure they understand that it's not about judgment or trying to look a certain way - I just want an honest answer (their true opinion) so I can help them better. I also always reassure them that the check-in is only for me (and them) to see, which helps.

Thanks Marissa- I'm a resource teacher for learning and behaviour in NZ and would love to adapt this - maybe even for a whole class. It's fantastic!

Hi Melissa! I love the clipart images you've used! What are they called? Where did you find them and are there more emotions available? I always try to use pictures in my Likert Scales with pre/posts and needs assessments with my younger kiddos :) Thanks so much! 7/5/2016 12:22:27 pm
Whenever I'm looking for clipart, I Google "free ______ clipart." However, I'm sure there's a better way to make sure you not only find what you want, but also find what's not copyright protected. It's hard to tell - I do my best to make sure it's not when I use images. 2/5/2016 03:24:47 pm
Marrisa, excellent graph and resource that you created for doing individual counseling for the kids. Maybe it could be something for me to try out on my own children. My wife noticed something was wrong with our son after he came home from school with a sad face.

I found this wonderful sheet on Pinterest and then found out you had a blog. I am a new child play therapist. I also use worksheets near the end of the session. I This is a great sheet to use; my clients will love it. Thank you- I know I will be coming to your website for more.
