A gentle, creative classroom journey rooted in social-emotional learning, designed for Grades 1–3.
The My Ishi Feelings Book Student + Teacher Bundle brings together the Student Program and Teacher Guide, giving students a personal, creative way to explore feelings and everyday experiences, while providing educators with the structure and language to guide them through 17 thoughtfully sequenced lessons.
Students create their own Ishi, explore feelings—including feelings that may not have a name—connect feelings to their own everyday experiences, reflect on everyday “stinky moments,” explore calming tools and other things that may help, and express their ideas through drawing, writing, journaling, and creative activities.
Their journey builds toward creating a personalized five-page My Ishi Feelings Book filled with their own experiences, reflections, discoveries, and reminders of what helps.
Alongside the Student Program, the Teacher Guide provides 17 thoughtfully sequenced lessons with suggested teacher language, Calm Moments, Ishi Check-Ins, warm-ups, activities, reflection prompts, journaling guidance, student support, extensions, and family connections.
The approach is intentionally gentle and flexible. Rather than teaching students the “right” way to feel, Ishi invites them to notice, explore, reflect, and discover what may help.
