Building Self-Management Skills
We have also started a new SEL skill this 9 weeks which is Self-Management.
Self-management is a person’s success in controlling his/ her emotions and behaviors, especially in new and challenging situations.
The Why: If we don’t learn to manage ourselves, others will do it for us. Self-managers have more opportunity, freedom, and self-respect.
Key Concepts we will be teaching this 9 weeks:
· Humans can only control themselves.
· Behavior is a choice based on one’s perceptions about what happens in the outside world.
· Emotions come and go, and I can let them pass.
· Mind, Body, and Spirit work together.
· Brains can grow new pathways.
· Movement helps me manage my emotions and behavior.
· My response is my responsibility.
· I have my own brain - I make my own choices.
Components of the Skill of Self-Management:
· Paying attention
· Waiting your turn
· Focusing on a task despite problems or distractions
· Acting comfortable in a new situation
· Performing the steps of a task in order
· Thinking before you act
· Passing up something you want or doing something you don’t like to get something better in the future
· Accepting another choice when the first choice is unavailable
· Staying calm when faced with a challenge
· Adjusting well to changes in plans
· Adjusting well when going from one setting to another
