My Project

We will use the compliment cards to send positive messages to students. These cards will also demonstrate how to be positive with others and model to students kind words and gestures. We will also use the plushies to guide students to a calmer and more relaxed state.

These techniques will help get students back to learning and preparing for their futures.

We will also combine these new items with other donations we have received, such as journals, stickers, and fidget toys. Thank you for helping to give us the supplies to boost our social emotional wellness.
