Teacher tip
Sit with the child and have them tell you about the drawing, then write their words for them.
How to use it
- Give the sheet only when the child is calm. Reflection does not work in the middle of big feelings.
- Sit next to the student and talk it through, especially for younger kids.
- Introduce the sheet once, model it, then make it part of a routine so kids know what to expect.
Watch for
Students who write what they think you want to hear. Ask follow-up questions.
Talk about it
- What could you try next time?
- Why do you think we use this in our classroom?
