Detailed Goal: Managing Fear 

Watch, Play, Learn SEL Block: Kaki is Fearful 
Basma and Jad are playing outside, and Jad tries to teach Basma how to grass sail, but Basma is afraid of falling. Chicken interrupts with a big feelings alert – it’s their friend Kaki! Kaki is playing with Filo, Turtle, and Zoe, but he is afraid of riding in the cart that Filo is pulling. Basma and Jad teach Kaki how to “draw it out” to help him face his fears. Drawing it out helps Basma face her fears of grass sailing too. 

Watch, Play, Learn SEL Block: Elmo is Fearful 
Basma and Jad are building a block tower but can’t quite reach the top for the final block. Jad tries to use a step stool but is afraid of how high it is. Chicken interrupts with a big feelings alert – it’s their friend Elmo! Elmo and Turtle and building a fun fort, but it’s too dark and Elmo is scared to go inside. Basma and Jad help Elmo identify his feeling as fear and teach him to belly breathe to help calm down. Belly breathing helps Jad face his fears too.  

Watch, Play, Learn SEL Block: Filo is Fearful 
Basma and Jad are doing crafts in the playground. Basma wants to show Jad her cool flower sculpture she made, but when Jad approaches a ladybug flies over and scares him. Chicken interrupts with a big feelings alert – it’s their friend Filo! Filo is playing on the playground but is stuck at the top of the slide because it is too high up. Basma and Jad help Filo identify her feeling as “fear” and teach her how to “be a tree” to feel better. By helping Filo recognize her fear, Jad is able to “be a tree” to help with his fear of bugs.
