A NOTE FROM

DR. REBECCA
I have a confession. I'm not a sports fan. I never played organized
sports. I never know when my local sports team is on, even if they
are one game away from winning it all.

And I definitely have asked embarrassing questions of my sports

fan friends like, "What happens when the runner gets to 4th
base?"

But I was a cheerleader.

And real talk? I kind of still am...

As a school psychologist, author, and speaker, I'm a cheerleader

for students who are going through tough times .

I'm also a coach to the adults who want to help our increasingly
stressed out students.

I'm 100% on TEAM COPING

SKILLS.
And the fact that you downloaded this coloring book means you
probably are too!

When children have coping skills, they are better equipped

to experience success, enjoy school and become
independent life-long learners.

I'm a big fan of turning research on coping into reality and

making it FUN. Play is the language of the child, and no matter
how old we are, when learning coping skills is fun, we learn more.

So I hope you have fun coloring!
