Resiliency is the ability to bounce back from difficulties, adapt to challenges, and keep going even when things get tough. For elementary school students, developing resiliency and coping skills is essential for managing frustration, handling disappointments, and navigating social and academic challenges.

When children learn healthy coping methods—such as using deep breathing, positive self-talk, or seeking help—they build confidence and emotional strength. Teaching these skills early helps students develop a growth mindset, problem-solving abilities, and the emotional flexibility needed to succeed in school and beyond.

Help your students build resilience and emotional regulation with this engaging, 60-page workbook that uses a fun and relatable “car engine” model to teach coping skills. By following the Road of Resilience, students will learn how to identify their “engine speeds,” recognize triggers, and use coping tools to navigate stress and big emotions. Through seven structured units and 48 interactive worksheets, this resource provides a hands-on approach to developing self-regulation and problem-solving skills.

Each unit includes an anchor page that introduces key concepts, helping students understand how to maintain their emotional “car” for a smoother ride through life’s challenges. From recognizing potholes and speed bumps (triggers) to mapping out a personal coping plan, this workbook gives students the strategies they need to handle frustration, anxiety, and setbacks with confidence. At the end of the journey, a certificate of completion celebrates their progress!
