I can't believe it's a new year already! I know the break flew by for all of us, and hopefully you took that time to rest and not do work, which means you might need a day or two to get your life back together upon returning. Guess what? The kids need a day or two as well. I hope these resources help you (and them) take a beat before diving back in.
 
My favorite thing about these interactive resources is that they mix SEL reflections with high-interest topics/activities for the students, so while they're "getting a break", they're still working on another part of themselves. Included are 5 resources that are perfect for any day in January when you need some time and peace, but you don't want to give the kids meaningless busy work. These resources have a great engagement factor, while still getting a little creative thinking in.
