YOU CAN NOT BE REPLACED

TFTNT!

I'm glad I was at least able to do a few weeks of Mental Health Awareness curriculum with the students before schools shut down. I had a lot more stuff planned, though. I was going to show them a lot of stuff on the Jed Foundation's website.

That's great, April. :) Hopefully, you can continue it once the crisis simmers down.

I did not know you had such a thing as Mental Health Awareness curriculum - that's really good :nod:

I don't think that all schools have it, so it's good that April does. :)

No I don't imagine many does :look:

Well, it’s part of our home room curriculum. I’m on a team that develops that, and I was adamant about devoting a month to mental health.

European here - so what is "home room curriculum" :look: :blush:

Yeah, that term isn't familiar to me either.

I sometimes get so lost when Americans talk about the courses :lol:

Same. :lol: The lingo is different for certain things.

For us, our home room is just our first class of the day. It’s a little bit longer than the other classes. Other schools do it differently. In our high school, it’s like a separate 15 minute class every day, and they do a bunch of positive/productive competitions with other home rooms throughout the year.

That's nice, it doesn't take up much time during the day but hopefully helps the students to feel more positive. :)

Unfortunately, we have one teacher who just doesn’t do it.

Oh thanks for explaining it - that sounds like a good idea :nod:
