My Project
Aloha! I am Ms. Ellie, a Behavioral Health Specialist counselor. I service Tier 3 students grade 7-12, many of whom have multiple mental health diagnoses.
I have noticed that with the students who have ADHD or Anxiety Disorder, their minds can relax and focus if they are able to work on something that is both complex yet fun.
I am always looking for interesting ways to support them.
Some have naturally gravitated to engineering toys at school, and we have even used it as a reward or calming tool for them when they are stressed at school. It naturally captures their attention and redirects their fight or flight responses to a calmer and productive state. They really LOVE IT!
That is why I would like to have more STEM kits in my office for these students. It is a good way for them to fidget with educational toys and stimulate their imagination. They can increase their self-confidence or start an interest or passion in engineering, planes, or robots.
We would greatly appreciate any donations to make their dream come true.
