Fall and the start of a new school year.\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019ve said before that September often feels like the \u201creal\u201d New Year, prompting goal setting and taking on new ventures.<\/p>\n<p>One of my goals arises from my use of Pinterest. How\u2019s that you say? Pinterest is helping you set goals?<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it is.\u00a0\u00a0 You see, in my role as a school counsellor this past year my explorations on Pinterest were incredibly helpful.\u00a0\u00a0 I found lesson plans, posters, creative ideas for working with students on a variety of issues, articles and blog posts, book lists and reviews, printable forms, templates and so much more.<\/p>\n<p>It was a rich resource that I turned to over and over again.\u00a0\u00a0 Often the ideas were jumping off points for me.\u00a0\u00a0 For example, I needed a way to introduce myself and my role to our grade six classes. I found suggestions that helped me tailor a fun presentation that the students remembered throughout the year. It also made it easier for them to come and talk to me.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps my favourite use of Pinterest this past year was around Child and Youth Mental Health Day.[1] The theme was \u201cI care about you\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0 I shared ideas I found on Pinterest with the whole school. It doesn\u2019t take much to spark creativity. Between a positive-tree, posters, messages in chalk, kindness nominations and caring notes hidden around the school it was a great few weeks leading up to the event.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly, I connected with some of the counsellors whose work I followed online and in so doing built a community of practice that spans the globe.<\/p>\n<p>So what is my goal this year?\u00a0\u00a0 I will be much more creative and proactive in my approach this year as a school counsellor. I have ideas about how to introduce myself to the whole school (one class at a time) and I am planning to have fun doing it. I am connected to a broader community and I intend to make even better use of it this year, sharing my experiences and ideas as well as learning from others.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t explored Pinterest for yourself you may want to give it a go.\u00a0\u00a0 There is so much more than recipes and crafts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dawn M.
