My Project

Due to local weather related issues, my students have been living through not having a reliable, safe source of water both for drinking and running water in their houses. These circumstances have taken a toll on my students well-being. I have noticed that they are more pessimistic about the current situation they live in and they don't have a very optimistic view of the future.

These resources will allow my students to express their emotions through journal writing as well as decorating their class notebooks and journals with stickers and stamps to uplift themselves everytime they pull them out of their backpack.

Ms. Baines Jim Hill High School Grades 9-12
