Funded Dec 4, 2023First and foremost, your support has been invaluable, and I can't express my gratitude enough. The books all revolve around social-emotional learning, not only benefiting the students I directly support as a school psychologist but also those served by the school counselor and social worker. These books, presented in kid-friendly language, cover essential skills like coping with emotions such as anxiety, frustration, anger, worry, and sadness. They also focus on fostering adaptive skills like confidence, flexible thinking and a sense of belonging.
Since I don't have a dedicated classroom, I work with students in small groups or one-on-one at a Tier 2 level or with counseling goals on their IEP grid. The tailored lessons based on these books align perfectly with the specific goals these students have.
As highlighted earlier, these books aren't just benefiting my students. Other service providers have seen positive outcomes as well. One particular student has responded exceptionally well to the books, successfully applying the taught strategies in various situations.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Deb
