Building Knowledge and Helping Big Emotions

Help me give my students the materials that they need to help them access our new reading resource, a new novel, Restart. And some tools to help them regulate their big emotions.

My Project

The materials in this project will help students in our classroom access our new district reading curriculum that teaches them knowledge from around the world (maps), and a novel to inspire our young readers and writers.

Big learning often sparks big emotions.

This project will also help our students regulate their emotions while trying to learn all the exciting content. The legos will help students to relax and calm down, the timers will help my visual spatial kiddos, and the calming strips will help students to calm while they are working on reading during speaking and listening time.
