My Project
Like all kids, my students have returned from the pandemic with deep social emotional needs. Extra practice with skills like having empathy, working together, and communication through frustration have been critical.
I want to support my students in continuing to build these critical skills by giving them engaging and joyful activities for lunch!
Already, we have large groups of students who come into the library each day to work on puzzles and play chess. These LEGO sets, puzzles, building blocks, and mad libs will make it possible for more students to benefit from having the resources to socialize positively with their peers.
More than half of 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
