The Mental Health Literacy Units of Instruction, created by DPI and OCMH, from have been downloaded thousands of times across 44 states and 14 countries since 2021! As one of the nearly 2,000 Wisconsin educators who have downloaded the lessons, we wanted you to know about the newly released Mental Health Literacy Activities for K4 - 2nd grade!
Mental health literacy includes the knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed to develop and maintain positive mental health and seek appropriate help. New 15-minute activities for K4-K5 and Grades 1-2 help students to develop skills that are the building blocks of future mental health literacy, such as developing awareness and regulation of emotions, developing positive self-concept, and identifying activities that promote wellness.
Download the free activities on the Department of Public Instruction’s Mental Health Literacy and Wellness Education webpage.
Interested in learning more? Join DPI and the Wisconsin State Office of Children’s Mental Health on Wednesday, September 25th from 11:30 am - 12:30 pm for a webinar to learn more about the activities and review practical considerations for implementation. Please register for the webinar using the registration link.
