Since COVID, many students in our school were only in person for three months of learning. Leaving them unable to interact as normal due to social distancing protocols. Many of these students have only been in a school setting for a few months each year and are lacking essential social-emotional skills they would have otherwise learned through talking and playing with their peers in a social environment. The breathing ball will be used in our social-emotional calm down corner to allow for student self-calming when feeling overwhelmed during our regular school day. The books will be used alongside activities during the year for students to work towards regulating their emotions and working on building a classroom community. Any little bit helps and we appreciate your generosity!
