NEW!  The newly developed Educator’s Companion to Chill & Spill was created in partnership with Committee for Children to complement their “Second Step” anti-bullying program for middle and high school students. The Companion supports the use of the Chill & Spill journal, which utilizes a blend of creative and expressive arts experiences that encourage students to communicate and explore their creativity and individual voices.

The curriculum outlined in the Educator’s Companion makes an excellent addition to arts, health, psychology, writing, and life-skills classrooms. It is especially useful for educators who are interested in bringing the expressive arts into their classrooms and are looking for an age-appropriate tool or curriculum that is structured, focused and sustainable.

The Educator’s Companion offers instruction on the best practices of using Chill & Spill in a classroom setting. Through this book, you will learn how to:

• Utilize Chill & Spill successfully in the classroom
• Coach the creative process
• Expand the activities to provide an even richer experience
• Talk to students about their artwork
• Use various artistic materials

• Understand the importance of “chilling” (self-soothing through creativity) and “spilling” (sharing, writing, expressing) their emotions in a healthy and productive way
• Develop creative thinking, perseverance, and appropriate risk-taking
• Build self-awareness and personal identity
• Determine what qualities and core values they would like to exhibit in their lives
• Increase active problem-solving by gaining insight into the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behavior
