My Project

Social and emotional learning is the foundation for which all children need to grow academically. More importantly, social and emotional learning is needed in order to help children grow typically and navigate their world with success, not only for themselves, but for others.

Please help fund this project focusing on read aloud books and games/activities for their social and emotional growth.

There are so rich many read aloud book companions in this project. Many of them align with a social and emotional skill of focus according to the SEL standards for Minnesota. I want to build a library that is organized by the skill we are working on! Also, many of the games and activities can be used whole or small group to focus on specific skills as well, such as Memory.
