My Students

My students come from different and varying backgrounds which creates an amazing class family!

In this class, we build a community around what we have in common and our shared experiences.

We are part of a larger school that celebrates inclusion. I teach in a classroom with students of all abilities. My classroom is about making sure ALL students feel they are a part of this classroom family and that they are in this classroom for a purpose. In our classroom we build relationships, following directions, and general education content is taught and learned in a multitude of ways. We celebrate little wins together each day.

My Project

This project will help with students learning how to grow socially and emotionally during a pandemic. We are using all the tools we have to encourage our students to access calming strategies when needed. Our students are constantly learning how to manage these skills. Encouraging the development of emotional skills during a pandemic is essential. We are needing these items to add to our calming corner of our classroom. These lamps will promote mindfulness, breathing, and reflection.

We all have different coping mechanisms that we have learned to use to regulate our emotions and return to a more neutral or positive space--Kids are no different!
