Bright Kids Deserve Bright and Colorful Printables!
Funded Mar 5, 2024I've been a school counselor for many years and I always thought having color copies for children was a luxury that was out my reach. When my school started using a color coded "mood meter", teachers received one copy to place in their classrooms. Again, color copies are hard to come by in schools! For my counseling students, I felt it was imperative for them to have their own copy of the mood meter so that they could continue to practice understanding their moods and the strategies we were learning in counseling sessions to reduce upset feelings and increase positive feelings. We all strive to be in the yellow or the green zones!
With the generosity of donors, I was able to use the new color printer to create folders with various tools for my students to bring home to practice self regulation skills over the summer months when they won't have their counselor to assist them with emotional support. Thank you for believing in my work with students!”

Global Citizens in the Making!
Funded Feb 16, 2024Many students enter my office every week. Sometimes I see them once because they are having a difficult day,but many times I see them on an on going basis for counseling and support. Every single child that entered my room noticed the new bright and fun counseling tools! They all wanted to find out what was new and play with everything!
The new counseling tools I received have helped students label and understand different feelings so that they can recognize those emotions in themselves and others. These are the building blocks for children to develop empathy and compassion which leads to more positive interactions with others. I believe these skills will lead my students to be successful global citizens! Thank you for believing in my work I do with children and know that you have made an impact!”
