Week of 9/21

Good morning,
I know it can be challenging for students to be motivated sometimes, especially now during remote learning. Here is a great resource to help figure out why your student isn't motivated and some tools to help get them motivated so they can be successful!

Week of 9/14

Good morning everyone,
I hope everyone had a great first week! Since it's the beginning of the year and we're setting new goals, I thought a great way to do that was through Goal Setting Yoga!

Remember to make your goals SMART:
Specific
Measurable
Attainable
Relevant
Timely
Post your goals in the comments so I can see what you're working towards this year and so I can help you reach them! Remember, anything is possible!

Hi Everyone,
My name is Mrs. Garfinkel and I am so excited to be the new counselor at Henry Elementary! This is my 8th year as a counselor and I cannot wait to work with all of you. As the counselor, I am here to support you with whatever you need help with...problems with friends or family, difficulty in school, trouble staying motivated, planning for your future, managing your stress. Please don't hesitate to reach out! The best ways to contact me are by email at: mgarfinkel@cps.edu or completing one of my request forms. Here is the one for students: https://forms.gle/zatjkEFc12gDzdUV9 and the one for parents: https://forms.gle/8YCDKfjup7cVXBVm7
Also, since we can't start the year in person I created a virtual office for all of you use.

I know this year may not be starting how you hoped it would, but I am looking forward to working with all of you and getting to know you!

I am posting below a short mindfulness exercise so we can start the year on a positive note.
