My Project

Social emotional skills and healthy emotional development are critical for any child to be successful in school. The Kimochis tool kits are the fastest, most effective classroom management tools available. Children and parents quickly connect with the characters and feelings to improve student behavior and learning.

My goal for this project is for my students to learn more about recognizing and responding to their strong emotions, and demonstrating empathy for others.

My students are special because they are eager to learn, explore, and investigate the world around them, but some need support managing their big emotions. Using the Kimochis tool kit and plush characters, students can begin to identify and communicate their feelings in a positive manner. Being able to express their feelings effectively will enable my students to build strong relationships with themselves and others.

Your support for this project will equip my students with these critical, invaluable skills that will carry them throughout their lives. Kimochis are the perfect way to help my students grow.
