My Project

I want to use the box set and books to help further develop my young students u understanding of big emotions. Using the plushies will be great for visualization and for playing games. The books I want to use as poster stories around my classroom. Young kids are such visual learners that I feel this will be a better approach to teaching those big emotions. Young learners are all about learning to be at school and developing emotions. Being at school and away from Mom is hard, if I can make that a lot better I always will.
