My Project

We are looking to support students SEL needs in our classroom. Students need support in having meaningful relationships and dealing with their needs as they grow up in our demanding world. I've selected a bean bag chair for our calm down corner, an SEL sentence frame game, and several read alouds to teach how to deal with your feelings through story examples. We will also use dry erase boards and head phones to continue to learn and communicate through online activities. Thank you so much for considering donating to us!!
