Cooking together would be a great opportunity to do some math with middle schoolers. The process of thinking through a recipe and adjusting for the number of servings desired is a great activity to apply some proportional reasoning thinking.

Ask students about growth mindset. People with a
fixed mindset believe that intelligence and other abilities are fixed -- you either have it or you don’t. People with a growth mindset believe that, through hard work and sustained effort, you can grow your abilities and skills. Research has shown that students with a growth mindset consistently outperform their peers.
Photos to share.
Write about your feelings. Research has shown that even 10 minutes of writing can help reduce anxiety. You can make a worry list, write a diary entry, or start a gratitude journal, where you document things and people for which you are thankful. For kids who are not able to write yet, have them draw a picture and ask them to tell a story about their picture.
