mental health

Mental health is a hot topic for educators because of the pressures students face from all directions. Stress at home, anxiety about academic performance, and social pressures can affect children of all age groups, leading to frustration, behavioral changes, and other issues that impact learning.

Really Good Stuff® offers teachers a range of classroom resources for mental health. Our resources include discussions and interactions to promote mental health awareness. From engaging mindfulness resources to reference materials and products designed to reinforce positive self-talk for students, our assortment approaches mental health in schools from multiple angles. Keep your students on track, and help them develop lifelong skills and tools for a healthier well-being.

Understanding Emotions

Students may act more mature than they are, and in a world where they grow up so fast, teachers can help them slow down and recognize their emotions. When students learn self-awareness, they have the tools they need to advocate for themselves.

Stock your class environment with mental health resources, including games, discussion cards, and other activities, that encourage students to learn more about themselves and normalize conversation beyond core school subjects. We even have resource books for teachers to help them introduce and reinforce mental health concepts to students of all ages.

Creating a Mindful Atmosphere

When teachers look beyond a child’s academic performance and behavior, they can see the value of working with each student to identify their learning style. Our classroom mindfulness resources help you achieve an open, accepting environment for children to be authentic.

Mindfulness, after all, is a practice, and by encouraging your class to look within, they can develop emotional intelligence that will serve them well in life beyond a school campus. Check out our mindfulness journals, coloring books, and posters to let your students know that education includes more than tests and grades.

Calm-Down Materials

Our mental health classroom resources also include calm-down materials, such as sensory toys and products like our Excellerations® Rainbow Breathing Board, that help students regulate and refocus themselves when emotions become overwhelming. Shop for these helpful tools individually or in kits. Kits like our Really Good Stuff® Calm Down Tools offer relief and outlets through a handful of different sensory tools that come with their own easy storage bin.
