Morning Check-In

Morning check-ins allow students to "recognize and manage their emotions…" as they must think about and label how they are feeling. Teachers should implement this early and continue it throughout the school year. There should be a designated time throughout the day where students can complete the check-in. 

Morning check-ins require teachers to create a chart with different emotions or phrases and place it in a private area of the room Prior to the first check-in, teachers should explain the chart to help with understanding. As students come in each morning, they will write their name on the back of a sticky note and place it in the row that best describes their feelings. While students are working, teachers can check the chart and determine the next steps such as individual meetings.
