My Students
The students I serve are from the side of Chicago which is considered a poverty-stricken area. Students look for our school to provide resources for social-emotional learning and mental health to help them heal from the trauma, stress, anxiety, and the changes we are facing this school year.
My students are bursting to learn and they are willing to improve on their negative thinking and manage their emotions during this difficult time in our society.
In addition, they understand that words can be powerful and hurtful. However, on the other hand, affirmations can alter their thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and behavior as they repeat them daily to affirm their self-worth.
My Project
My students will benefit from these painting materials as they affirm and write their affirmations on their canvas to help them build positive thoughts, self-esteem, and mitigate the effects of stress. These materials will also be hung around the classroom to help my students change their negative thought patterns into positive ones.
In addition, they will be allowed to use the materials in person and at home to change their mindset if they are experiencing stress, trauma, or anxiety in order to cope with daily stressors and worriers.
In conclusion, it's always my goal to give my students the tools and strategies to cope and solve their problems.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
