A majority of my project consists of Social-Emotional books for my students to connect to. A lot of my times my students are better able to connect to the characters in stories and talk about the different emotions we feel. For example, we have used the book Llama Llama and the Bully Goat to talk about what bullying is and how bullying can make our friends feel when they are being bullied. My students really learn how to empathize and understand why we should not be "bullies" in school or anywhere else. The other two items are Math items for my students who struggle with writing their numbers and understanding the difference in amount between numbers.
