Resilience in Children
I Have
The I Have factors are the external supports and resources that
promote resilience in children. These factors lay the foundation for
developing feelings of safety and security which is the core of
developing resilience in children. The International Resilience
Project emphasizes that this foundation is necessary before children
can be secure in their awareness of who they are or what they can
do.
Resilience in Children
I Am
The I Am factors are feelings, attitudes, and beliefs within
children; these are their internal and personal strengths.
Resilience in Children
I Can
The I Can factors are children’s social and interpersonal skills
which they learn through interaction with others or from others’
teaching or modeling.

Cloud Relaxation
cloud relaxation
Purpose: For learners to have the opportunity to relax and experience
feelings of calm in the body
1. Take three breaths, and then if you feel ready, either close your eyes
or lower them to the ground. Take three more breaths, then notice
the sounds around you or the thoughts in your mind.
2. Keep breathing, then begin to let those sounds and thoughts go,
passing by like passing clouds. Then come back to your breathing.
Take another three breaths remembering that if other thoughts
come to your mind, you can let them go, like you let the clouds pass
by.
3. Now imagine a gentle, soft, beautiful cloud in your favorite color,
forming at your feet.
SCRIPT
4. Imagine it relaxing your feet, your toes, the soles of your feet, your
heels, your ankles, feeling good and feeling soft and relaxed.
5. Then imagine the cloud rising towards your calves, and relaxing
your calves, then your knees, and then all the way to your thighs,
and then your waist (wait a few seconds before moving from calves,
to knees, thighs and waist.)
6. Now your lower body feels very relaxed, and you can see the
beautiful cloud wrapped around your waist, helping you feel more
and more relaxed.
SCRIPT
7. Then the cloud is rising up your hands, elbow, and arms, and your
chest and your shoulders. (Move slowly from each part)
8. Keep breathing.
9. You are now very, very relaxed
10. Then you feel the cloud rising up to touch your chin, and then the
tips of your ears and relaxing your whole face all the way to the top
of your head. And now you are very very relaxed. From the tips of
your toes, and the tips of your fingers, all the way to the top of your
head.
SCRIPT
11. Now you are surrounded by this beautiful cloud in your favorite
color, and it’s soft and gentle and you are feeling very relaxed.
12. As you continue to breathe, now let your cloud fly and float around
with you in it, until you come back to the room. And in three
breaths, slowly open your eyes.

BAGS OF FEELINGS
Purpose: For learners to share their feelings to develop self-awareness;
and to listen to their classmates’ feelings in order to develop
empathy
Reminder
• Remind your learners of the guidelines for your PSS
session: be curious, be respectful, listen, take turns, avoid
judgment, everything shared is confidential.
DIRECTION
1. Ask learners to write on a sheet of paper a problem they
are carrying with them from the time of Covid. Ask them
not to put their names on their sheet.
2. Ask them to crumple the sheet of paper and throw their
paper to the front of the room or shoot it in the box you
prepared. Create a pile or use the box.
3. Ask each learner to come to the front and read one
problem of their classmate by picking a random crumpled
paper from the box.
4. Remind classmates to listen attentively to their peers’
concerns
DISCUSSION GUIDE
• What was it like to hear about your classmates’ problems?
• What can you do to support each other now that you know
what your classmates are going through?
• How do you feel knowing what your classmates are going
through?
• If you were to create a slogan for the class after what you’ve
heard, what would it be?
WRAP UP DISCUSSION / ACTIVITY

respectful, listen, take turns, avoid judgment, everything
shared is confidential
Direction
1. Tell learners to pretend they are a magician who can do
anything he or she wants.
2. Ask the magicians the question: What would you do to
change the world and make it a better place? (This can be
one, two or however many things. But even one will
suffice.)
3. Write down their names and responses on the board.
4. Once everyone has shared, ask the learners how they
would go about making the changes they wish to see. (In
groups, have each one share with each other)
NOTE: ALTERNATIVE THEMES COULD
BE “IF I COULD CHANGE
MYSELF”, “IF I COULD CHANGE
MY FAMILY”
DISCUSSION GUIDE
• Let them know you will keep the poster up for them to
remember.
