Plan what to carry between two homes

For students

Sky stays in two places during the school week. The reading folder was left behind last time.

Choose what goes in the bag, what could stay in both places, and what an adult can help with.

In the bag: Reading folder.

At both places if available: A pencil.

Ask an adult: “Can we check my bag before I leave?”

For the counselor

2 min • Start. Say “Use Sky’s story. You don’t need to tell us where you live.”

6 min • Practice. Read each card. Have students sort by pointing or holding up one, two, or three fingers. Repeat with a library book, a spare eraser, and a pickup reminder. Possible answers: bag, both places, adult help.

2 min • Check. “What’s one way Sky could remember the reading folder?” Example: put it in the bag right after reading.

Fictional examples are fine. Students can point, speak, or pass.
