My Project

In this project you will see posters and a book set to help teach little minds through social emotional learning. We will complete A Little Spot of Feelings set as well as set up a comfortable calming corner with calming strategies. Another thing you will see in this project are culturally responsive books from underprivileged authors. This is to help every student feel included and seen in our books. Lastly, you will see games for those dreaded indoor recess days!

My top priority with this project is to make sure I create a safe and inclusive classroom for all of my students.
