School is back in session next month, and although I have thoroughly enjoyed my summer break I am thrilled to begin the school year. My mind has been filled with tons of questions, many of which I will not get the answers to until we are officially back in school. I have been thinking about how I want to introduce myself to my students. I looked on Pinterest and then went through the posts on the many FB groups that I belong to. One idea that has come up multiple times is using Mr./ Mrs. Potato Head. After seeing it numerous times, I researched what resources were available and the cost. This lesson is a visual representation of the role of a counselor. I want the lesson to be engaging so that the students are able to create a mental picture. This activity will serve as a reminder of how I can support them and what my role is in the school.
I looked online and found that Amazon's price (as of 7/20/2019) was the cheapest and includes free shipping with Prime shipping! I found a seller on TPT that has a FREE handout that accompanies this lesson. Click the below to be taken directly to this resource. Be sure to leave the seller (Spark Success Counseling) positive feedback.

If you are looking for a back to school activity that is engaging, this may be the one for you!
