It is my mission, as a school counselor, to support my students in meeting their individual academic, social and emotional goals. I can better assist my students if I can have these different resources available to them, such as the Ninja Life Hack book sets, as well as other books pertaining to feelings and emotions, fidget toys, stress balls, and composition notebooks for journaling their feelings. My students can learn about different emotions, processing emotions, and developing coping strategies to appropriately respond to different situations they may encounter in their lives.
