Enhancing Social-Emotional Skills Through Play

Please help me give my students hands-on activities so they can play, grow their imagination and enhance their social skills with their peers.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Scholer's classroom raised $995

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

My students are English Language Learners who are constantly looking for new ways and opportunities to build onto their learning. These students have lost many opportunities to grow their imaginations, build on their communication and enhance their social-emotional skills due to COVID-19. These resources I have requested will provide a space for students to practice STEM learning with hands-on activities. The goal is to use these resources to help them grow their communication and social skills with each other. They will be able to build onto their imagination while learning how things work in real life.
