My Project

My students are amazing, diverse people. Typical middle school students; they love video games, skating, movies, and hanging out with friends. They have huge hearts and care so much.

These books will help them sort their feelings, emotions, and find what drives them to be the amazing people that they will become.

Having a class set of books will allow the students to discuss and help each other.

The years that I see my students are very important in their lives. Who they are and their own self worth come from their own self efficacy. I want to help them find the things that make them joyful, successful, and independent.
