I am asked and am honored daily to help meet the needs of both staff and students as well as the community in which I serve. Often I witness both teachers and students struggle to take a breath from the daily stresses that burden them both in and out of the classroom. I see students and teachers reacting to each other rather than responding. I am requesting yoga materials to provide yoga classes for teachers and students to support them in wellness and social-emotional learning practices that will enhance both the individual teachers and the students' collective well-being. The yoga mats, yoga blocks, blankets, and yoga straps will help me to unleash the full potential of every student AND teacher as a vehicle for social change. Research has demonstrated the negative impact of educator stress on teaching and learning and the positive impact that enhancing teacher well-being can have on student social-emotional and academic outcomes. I will be able to offer classes to the students and teachers. The community in which I serve does not have access to this type of wellness program. Our students have had many struggles in dealing with home life and school life, and this has increased since recent Parkland tragedy here in Broward County. Being a public school in a low socioeconomic area, I look forward to providing these materials to assist with my yoga class so that they don't have to!
