My Project

Emotions are great! Our students are really starting to start to understand and learning about having different emotions and how it is okay to feel many different ways. These items will assist with them being able to communicate these feelings. Having different books and items to help students understand and be able to express them will benefit them and help them. These items will be great to have in our room if students have a hard time expressing their emotions verbally. Each of these will benefit our classroom in many ways.
