Building Bright Futures: STEM & SEL for English Learners
Help me give my students hands-on STEM and Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) resources, including LEGO engineering kits, conversation cards, stress-relief tools, and creative supplies to support their critical thinking, collaboration, and emotional growth.
I absolutely love my students for their resilience, curiosity, and eagerness to learn. As English Learners (ELs), they bring diverse backgrounds, languages, and experiences into the classroom, making it a rich and dynamic learning environment. Many of my students thrive with hands-on, interactive learning, which is why I want to incorporate STEM and Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) resources into our daily instruction.
The materials I’m requesting will engage students in critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork through STEM activities while also fostering self-confidence, emotional regulation, and communication skills through SEL resources.
Whether it’s using STEM kits to spark creativity and innovation or SEL tools to help students navigate their emotions and build positive relationships, these resources will make learning more meaningful and accessible for them.
My goal is to create a classroom where students feel empowered to take risks, collaborate, and develop both their academic and emotional skills. By combining STEM and SEL, I hope to provide them with the tools they need to succeed not just in school, but in life.
My students are incredibly special because they work hard every day to master a new language while also navigating a new culture and academic expectations. They are determined, bright, and full of potential—I want to give them every opportunity to explore, create, and grow in a supportive and engaging environment.
Thank you for supporting our classroom and helping my students thrive!
