Help me give my students access to tools to help regulate their emotions and unleash their creativity. The items I am asking for will allow students the chance to learn about their emotions and express themselves creatively.

My Project
Hello! My students are amazing 1st graders in Baltimore City, Maryland. They love to create and show who they are. The items I am hoping for are a combination of SEL (social emotional learning) tools and books as well as creative STEM materials that will allow my students to show who they are and focus on positive activities. Providing a positive outlet will greatly help students learn to understand and regulate how they are feeling in positive, productive, and effective ways. This area of learning is an important part of fostering a kind classroom environment.
Half of students from low‑income households
