Students need to feel good about themselves and have social skills in order to perform well. Mental health services in schools help students function day to day by developing skills in coping and self-regulation. Trauma and negative animus rob students of their potential. We know that art therapy is an intervention, which helps stabilize emotions that are overwhelming, because of the safe containment it provides. Art is a natural expression for children who are struggling. I literally intend to add a third dimension of self-expression to promote wellness, self-esteem, and a sense of achievement. The 3Doodler will allow my students to voice their thoughts and feelings, creating a symbolic visual expression of their inner world. Their creations will highlight each student's interpretation of their diverse strengths and vulnerabilities, giving meaning to their struggles.
