I am teaching my scholars how to grow as a whole person! My scholars come with a background of various sever trauma and school is the only safe space for them. I am trying to optimize the day by incorporating teaching mindfulness and coping strategies to my day. The various tools I am requesting will help scholars grow both academically and emotionally; reaching the whole scholar. My goal is to be able to use these tools to meet the various individual needs of my scholars as a way to practice mindfulness, coping skills safe movement. Stress affects everyone but kinders do not yet know how to mange their stress and some times they don't even know how to express how they are feeling. These tools will teach scholars how to identify feelings and stress and how to manage them, be mindful and grow fully! I am so excited to help my students reach their full potential!
