My Project

Sterling Community School is a PK-8 school. I support the implementation of our Social-Emotional Support building-wide. There are many components to our SEL programs. Our SEL curriculum teaches students strategies and tools to regulate themselves throughout the day. The tools needed to self-regulate vary from child to child. I selected several tools for students to access when needing to regulate. These tools will be provided to individuals and classrooms as part of classroom calm corners. Another component of our SEL work is to teach and reinforce appropriate behaviors. Several of the items will be used school-wide to reinforce students demonstrating school-wide behaviors. The board games, legos, and limbo will be activities we can offer to students to reinforce their display of our behavioral expectations which are aligned with CASEL competencies. The snow cone maker will be a great addition to the large recognition activities we hold throughout the year for students meeting both academic and behavioral goals. For example, we have an end-of-year celebration for students meeting certain behavior expectations. The snow cone machine would be used as part of our recognition of students meeting expectations. This is just one way our school could use the snow cone machine. We could also use it for students completing summer reading, showing academic improvements on benchmark assessments, and for attendance celebrations.

Our SEL supports allow our students to be regulated throughout the school day and to engage in appropriate behaviors while in the classroom.

These supports also lead to increased engagement in learning, increased academic gains, and a more positive culture and climate within our school building.
