My Project

I teach a diverse group of first graders. My classroom has students that are Hispanic, Pacific Islander and white. While my students are all diverse and unique, one thing they all have in common is the need to focus on their social emotional skills. More than ever, students are struggling with perseverance, grit, and self regulation. Students don't know how to identify their emotions, how to manage them, or what to do when they are faced with challenging tasks.

I am requesting books that will help my students grow their social emotional skills.

These books will help students learn how to recognize their emotions, appropriate ways to manage their feelings and how to ask for help when their emotions are too big to regulate independently. I am also requesting books that focus on friendship, learning new things and how to persevere when faced with difficult tasks. These books will be read and used to supplement daily social emotional lessons in the classroom.
