I don't have time in my schedule to create a thoughtful curriculum. This includes everything I need; logically organized, step by step. The checklists early in the program allow students to reflect and have a deeper understanding of their values and stressors without the added anxiety of having to share out in a group they may not trust yet. Later, when students have grown to trust the group, they are able to share personal thoughts and feelings, making the experience powerful for all of them. -- Julie Thompson, school counselor, William Allen Elementary School Rochester, NH It's great to have found a curriculum that students of all ages can really buy into! Students are taking charge of their choices and goals! -- Jessica Gervais, program director, John Powers School - Alternative school Grades 1-9, Somersworth, New Hampshire One very simple aspect of MS3 that I like is the use of the word stress. Kids and adults alike can relate to this word! -- Ben Nester, school psychologist, South Meadow Middle School, Peterborough, NH I think this curriculum has helped students identify what they do and feel, and gives it a name. Students are starting to identify on their own some goal supporting and goal defeating behavior. They explain how they can turn negative self-talk around to positive self-talk. They are starting to identify their stress and what they can do about it. -- Paula Rounds, 5th grade teacher, South Meadow Middle School, Peterborough, NH I am going to be starting session 9 next week. So far it has been great. I combined session 1 and 2 and had students go through their own surveys and summarize it themselves. This was great because they could reflect on themselves. We had great discussions regarding this. Overall this has been a great program with wonderful information. -- Sara Cox, 7th grade science and math teacher, South Meadow Middle School, Peterborough, NH Many of the activities have opened up discussion about stressors teens can experience. Even students that may not be verbally sharing are listening to the conversation. I believe it helps them to know that they are not the only ones experiencing these things. -- Cindy Bradshaw, South Meadow Middle School, Peterborough We have had much success with the Managing Stress curriculum. Our students check in each morning and have been able to, over time, see the link between a good night of sleep, breakfast, talking about their stress and having a good day. Many times, students will link their weekly goals to the areas on their morning check in that seem to be troublesome (going to bed at the same time each night, having breakfast or simply asking to stay with us during advisory). The learning and language allows us (adults) to assess student needs before they become so big that the kids get overwhelmed and shut down. They have all noted to us as well that they like to be able to talk about little things before they become bigger issues. -- Sarah Milos, Project ME program teacher, West Running Brook Middle School Derry, NH I have implemented the curriculum with a middle school group and a high school group. In both groups the vocabulary of persistence, resilience and dwelling have been an awesome tool, both when processing in group and in individual counseling. In both groups we were able to have rich discussions from the initial Managing Stress Survey. -- Sue Cohen, counselor for Rochester Learning Academy, Rochester, NH I trialed the Managing Stress Curriculum with a class of nine middle school students that have emotional and behavioral disabilities. The lessons were engaging and easily adapted towards the various needs of the students. The students could relate to the topics discussed and appreciated the time spent on issues they experience on a daily basis. It was a meaningful experience for the staff in the classroom, as well, and encouraged open and honest communication and understanding. -- Sherry Farida, Spaulding Youth Center, Northfield NH Author InformationMarcel Lebrun is a professor at Plymouth State University in New Hampshire with 36 years of experience in education.
