(019) Working Through Challenges SEL Worksheet

Help kids connect real life challenges to the feeling of climbing a mountain. This worksheet uses a mountain trail theme to help kids think about obstacles such as loose rocks, a steep climb, a heavy backpack, being alone on the path, and not knowing what is ahead.

Kids will make comparisons between mountain challenges and real life struggles, then reflect on what doing hard things can help them learn. This is a simple but meaningful activity for counseling, small groups, SEL lessons, coping skills, resilience, growth mindset, and problem solving.

Great for helping kids talk about resilience, perseverance, coping skills, problem solving, confidence, emotional regulation, and working through hard things.
