Magic Pie (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781738971053)

Young children experience a wide range of emotions when presented with

challenges in their learning. These emotions, such as stress and anxiety,

can lead to physical symptoms of distress yet these can be supported

proactively by having children explore appropriate strategies to cope

with them. Magic PIE is our first book to help and guide children to use

an effective breathing strategy as a tool when faced with overwhelming

emotions while in school.

This book is intended to address the social-emotional-learning (S.E.L.) skills

in Mathematical Processes and has a direct connection with Ontario Math

Curriculum. The SEL skills aim at helping students, identify and manage

emotions, express and manage feelings, all while they engage positively

in mathematics activities. On the other hand, these feelings and emotions

can be emerging in many other situations regardless of the subject area.

Therefore, this book and the skills within have relevance in many different

areas in the day-to-day life of a child.

Through this book, young minds may find connections to the situations

that affect them, sensations that they feel as a result of anxieties and

worries and the coping strategies that can be helpful to them.
