I hope you are all having a great weekend! I was watching the presidential debate earlier this week and Mr. Romney talked about cutting funding to PBS. I remembered seeing footage of Mr. Rogers defending PBS in 1969 when they were in danger of losing funding while Nixon was in office. If you have not seen this video it is worth watching.
I thought that the song he talks about in the video, "What Do You Do With the Mad that You Feel" would be so great to share with children. You can watch the video, read the lyrics, download sheet music and listen to the song here: http://pbskids.org/rogers/songLyricsWhatDoYouDo.html.
I created a short social story based on the song lyrics that I might use with children with autism or behavioral/emotional disorders. If you are going to do a short lesson using the social story I might watch the video or sing the song first and then read the social story with the child/children.
If you would like a copy of this social story in power point format please email me at mikahstuible1@gmail.com.
Have a great week!
