My Project

Our students need an outlet for their emotions and art is a wonderful way to process their emotions and communicate them in a way that is safe and personal to them. In the past few years, students interpersonal skills have been lacking due to isolation and emotional stressors have escalated. It is important to me to help my students use art as a strategy to process these hard things.

Painting with watercolor, cutting and gluing paper, and creating affirmation rocks have all proved to be extremely relaxing and rewarding for my students as they process their feelings.

We will use these supplies in several different choice-based projects to teach empathy, kindness, emotional regulation, and responsible decision-making.
