Soda Pop Head: A Picture Book About Taming Tempers and Managing Anger

Product Information

We used this after reading “Soda Pop Head” to review some of the strategies presented in the book during a Social Emotional Lesson. Students were very engaged and the format was easy for me to navigate without any prep. Great resource, thanks! Given that the GAME SHOW takes 40-60 minutes to play, and sometimes we just don’t have that much time….or that Soda Pop Head lesson works best projected on a large screen, and sometimes the technology breaks down….or that there are days when we walk into the classroom and just know that a whole classroom game is not going to fly that day….and sometimes students need more quiet, reflective activities……I have included more than 6 additional formats that do not require the use of the internet. So far this year, we’ve used My Mouth is a Volcano, The Worst Day of My Life Ever, and my new, all-time Julia Cook favorite…

If playing in person, it is best used with a Promethean White Board or projector that that can be hooked up to your computer; it's formatted as a power point presentation and now google slides™, too! I can’t leave you without letting you know about the activities I “fancied up” before sharing them with you as a FREEBIE! RISK: teams take a “risk” when they choose this category, since the type of question and/or challenge is not revealed until chosen.Please note: This is a book companion lesson. Julia Cook's book, Soda Pop Head, is not included in this resource. Want to go screen-free? No problem! This Game Show also comes with printable task cards with the same prompts as the Game Show challenges.

guidance lesson classroom game encourages reflective thinking, and is designed for students to show off and build on their smarts in different ways.Now includes both Google Slides™ and Power Point Presentation files, which allows you to use for SEL distance learning, teletherapy, virtual counseling groups, school counseling guidance and in person lessons.

RISK: teams take a "risk" because the type of question and/or challenge is not revealed until chosen.I used this during distance learning and it was such a hit!! I tried to find as many ways as possible to make my lessons more exciting and this one was a major win!! The students LOVED it!!! Great resource! If you can, use the Google Slides Soda Pop Head Lesson or PowerPoint game on a Promethean White Board or projector
