My Project

The pandemic has stirred a lot of strong emotions within all of us. My project includes picture books that I'd like to use to teach about social awareness. Many of the picture books that I am requesting will help me teach about identifying emotions, expressing feelings, having empathy for others and coping skills/tools for dealing with emotions.

Picture books are a great tool for teaching concepts and skills to children.

My students love to listen to read alouds and it helps to engage students in discussions that they can make personal connections to.

I am also in need of a bigger mobile teaching desk. My current mobile desk is a bit too small to place my laptop stand on. I use the laptop stand as a projector to project worksheets and picture books on so my entire class can see what I am projecting. The adjustable teaching desk will allow me to stand and be mobile while teaching using my laptop and/or iPad.

Thank you for considering to donate to my second grade class project!
