Resources: WellCast and Yes Your Teen is Crazy by Michael J. Bradley
The following resources are courtesy of 2 of my middle school colleagues:
"A helpful introduction to: note taking skills, study skills, time management as well as conquering your fears, maintaining friendships, cyber-bullying, and how to break bad habits. Accessible and goofy. Works well for my class. Check it out! They also have free downloadable worksheets that you can use along with the short video clips."
"I would like to recommend the book Yes, Your Teen is Crazy. My school mentor recommended it to me, and although I'm not even half done I totally love it. It explains the adolescent brain and helps us understand how to love them through this difficult period."
