Grades 5/6 learn about coping strategiesNos classes de 5e et 6e année ont commencé à travailler avec nos "Trousses de Vivacité". Les trousses sont un projet qui était crée par l'Association canadienne et Manitoba Advocate pour la santé mentale (Manitoba-Winnipeg) pour promouvoir le bien-être mental des enfants. Le projet est présenté par des enseignants dans les classes d'école et montre aux enfants comment développer des stratégies d'adaptation positives qui les aident à comprendre ce qui les rend spéciaux et uniques, et les aide à développer des outils pour faire face aux événements et émotions de la vie. Our grade 5 and 6 classes have started working with our "Thrival Kits". The kits are a project that was created by the Canadian Mental Health Association and Manitoba Advocate for Mental Health (Winnipeg-Manitoba) to promote the mental well-being of children. The project is presented by teachers in school classrooms and shows children how to develop positive coping strategies that help them understand what makes them special and unique, and helps them develop tools to cope with events and emotions of life.
