Ten Months of Emotional Literacy

After the two week gratitude campaign, classroom teachers can opt into 10 months of video lessons to help kids apply the look for the good mindset to stressful emotions. We recommend kicking off this part with Wiggle Warrior® Week. Wiggle Warrior® Week is 5 days of video programming which teaches kids how to wiggle their stress into strength.

AFTER IMPLEMENTING OUR PROGRAM SINCE 2018

Carolyn McBride Writes:

This program has been instrumental in fostering a school culture of gratitude among students, staff, and families. Not only has this  program made such a positive impact in our school, it has been such a highlight for me to see our students take on the role of ambassadors where they helped to organize the Look for the Good assembly, presented the emotional literacy videos, and taught students how to turn their 'stress into strength'.
 
With the inclusion of the Wiggle Warrior Week and the Emotional Literacy videos, students have been better able to express their emotions in healthy ways and navigate life's ups and downs with resilience and self-awareness. We have witnessed a significant shift in the overall atmosphere within our school by encouraging students to actively seek out the good in themselves and others. All of the components of the Look for the Good Program have helped to empower our students to overcome obstacles and thrive in both their academic and personal lives.

These resources are a terrific example of the importance of communicating emotions that young children struggle with – resources that, at one time, were frowned upon. Core subjects such as English and Math will always be at the center of a grade school curriculum, but emotional literacy transcends grades and creates life skills.

If you are thinking of bringing the Look for the Good Program to your school, definitely try it. Not only will it help make your community stronger and more resilient, but you'll be creating positive memories and connections that will last a lifetime.

Why It Works

Our community-care program encourages people to focus on glimmers, which are tiny moments of nervous system regulation which remind you that you're strong enough to handle whatever stressful experience is in front of you. Glimmers are absolutely critical in trauma therapy and trauma-informed community care because they establish emotional safety and a readiness for learning. This is why the Look for the Good Project has been helping people focus on glimmers since 2011.
