My Project
I believe it's important for our students to learn to recognize and appreciate happiness through writing and journaling . With these journals, children will be developing their writing skills and the simple practice of mindfulness and wellbeing to start their day.
These writing journals will be an avenue for our scholars to express joy, document what they are feeling and even illustrate these thoughts with drawings when they are finished to share with their classmates.
These journals and crayons will allow my students to self-reflect and take the time to appreciate all the good things we do have in our lives.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
