Giving and Accepting compliments are a great social skill required for life! And even as teachers and staff, giving and accepting compliments is important to developing a strong, co-hesive, unified team environment. Look no further because this Teacher Compliment Journal (pass it forward) project is great for doing just that!
How does this program work? Included is pages where all the staffs names are included. One staff member chooses a person (whose name is not crossed out yet) and writes them a compliment on one of the pages. They then cross their name out of the list so that people are not doubling up! Simple write them a compliment and give the book to them! And this continues until all the teachers/ staff give and receive a like and admire compliment! Everything you need to implement this program is included. Simply print, bind or put into a folder and you are ready to implement!
This program has been used many times in many schools which has been a resounding success! Check out our “You are a Student Superstar” Compliment Journal (pass it forward program) designed especially for students and classrooms.

This 15 page Occupational Therapy Resource package explores Deep Pressure and Heavy Work Activities.
Heavy work activities (i.e.: proprioceptive input) can be used for individuals with sensory processing difficulties to help increase attention and modulate arousal. The premise behind these activities is to help their bodies receive regular input into their muscles and joints so they can get the input they crave and settle their bodies down. All kids need this! But some individuals with under-active neurological systems will need it even more. These activities are wonderful for providing children with the input they crave including deep proprioception and joint compression.
This package includes strategies and recommendations including whole body, hands and oral strategies for use both within the classroom and within home environments.

This book is about giving a voice and giving the child a choice as to what creative medium they would like – finger paint, draw, sketch, colour, write, anyway they want to express themselves.

Sometimes we all have difficulties in areas of problem solving and coping. Some have found that a comprehensive and consistent augmentative communication support strategy for problem solving can be helpful.
A problem solving framework is a step-by-step process that helps you to define the problem and generate great ideas.
This versatile problem solving framework can help individuals to isolate their thoughts and perceptions and allow those supporting the individuals to “tune in” to what the individual may be experiencing.
It’s important when problem solving to avoid jumping into “solution mode” too quickly. This can often be the case where there is a lot of pressure, time and resource limitations and other factors.
This problem solving framework can be used as a preventative behavioural strategy and help an individual initiative a problem solving routine independently.

This cathartic intervention has been designed to support teenagers and adults to create their own “Therapeutic Doll” or “Healing Doll” which helps provide insight and a connection to their core sense of self. Individuals are then asked to reflect on the process by examining the questions provided.
Therapeutic doll making is a sensorimotor therapeutic approach which helps support individuals who have experienced trauma such as sexual abuse, physical assault, domestic violence as well as explore interpersonal relationships.
This resource includes a list of questions for the individual to reflect on post activity as well as a diary entry page for them to record their thoughts.
MATERIALS NEEDED
Each student will require one blank calico doll. These can be purchased at craft stores. Additionally, there should be a wide range of craft materials to ensure that the students have a range of options to use when creating their therapeutic doll.
Individuals may also even want to bring in some personal items that they want to use to decorate their doll. Should you not be able to obtain blank calico dolls then a one page body outline is included in this resource so that students can decorate these instead. This is not ideal and not the intended purpose of this intervention and should be used as a last resort only.
