My Project

I work with grades K-5. I help them when they’re struggling emotionally and/or behaviorally.

New supplies will greatly benefit my students both behaviorally and emotionally.

Having fresh materials can spark excitement and curiosity, making them more engaged and enthusiastic about learning. This engagement can lead to better behavior as students are more focused and less likely to be disruptive. Emotionally, new supplies can give students a sense of being cared for and valued, which can boost their self-esteem and motivation. When students feel supported and have the tools they need, they're more likely to approach their work with a positive attitude and a willingness to participate.
