My Project

The items that I have added to this project are to help my students grow emotionally and socially while adding art to their daily activities.

Being a teacher at an art school, I have been able to see that firsthand.

The tools in this project are aimed to help students grow into the best version of themselves. Through Social and emotional learning books students will be able to hear stories and learn from them. They are then able to express their feelings, thoughts, and emotions in what makes sense to them. To truly be who they are meant to be! Through social and emotional learning students are able to thrive in all areas!
