Abstract

The word "Transition" should evoke positive feelings.  But, moreso, it has a negative connotation among students and parents.  Transitioning especially from an elementary school to a middle school evokes a wide variety of emotions, behaviors, and concerns for upper elementary school students.  This workshop will include numerous strategies that prepares students in deeming transition as a positive change or movement.  Strategies for students (and parents) will be discussed for positive transitioning from the elementary school to a middle school level, prekindergarten level to the formal school setting, along with from one elementary grade level to the next grade level.

Description

This guidance session will have a multi-modal delivery.  Program session attendees learning objectives/outcomes are:

*  to develop strategies and approaches to communicating and working with diverse student populations in addressing issues with student transitioning.

*  to advocate for student (individuals and collectively) success within the school and among community stakeholders.

*  promote a positive "Yes, you can!" attitude and school culture.

*  understand and promote the role of the school counselor among students, parents, school personnel, and community stakeholders to advocate and support one's school counseling program.

There will be a powerpoint that will outline the entire presentation, along with opportunities for group discussion, and a question and answer segment.  Handouts will be available for all attendees.
