My Project

I want to improve my students' mental health by using the story books I have selected. I have students who vary in social-emotional needs and they are on different grade levels. These books will help my students boost social and emotional learning skills. In addition, the powerful stories I have chosen will help my students foster confidence, identity, and social skills. These items will help me teach my students to set and achieve positive goals, embrace diversity, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships. Improving my students' social-emotional needs will overall benefit their academic performance.

Ms. Li PS 84 Lillian Weber Grades 3-5
