Circle Time Companions and Social-Emotional Help!

Help me give my students comfort companions during circle time and items to show how they are feeling. The social-emotional coins will be perfect for students to use as some have a hard time using words.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am working on this second project because as I am learning my group of students there is a high need for social-emotional support/games/techniques along with calming companions during circle time or throughout the school day. All of these items will help the children in the classroom meeting either social-emotional goals or get calm/comfort items to help during their feeling-on-feeling moments. Social-emotional is a big thing yes even in preschool!!! These items will also give students a chance to learn how to show their feelings. As a group, these items will be loved and appreciated!
