My Project
As a Special Education Elementary social worker, I work with a variety of students who benefit from additional support in social, emotional, and behavioral learning. I work with students grades K-5 at three elementary schools.
Many of our students struggle to identify and manage their feelings and solve problems.
interact with peers, and follow directions. I strive to make SEL learning fun, engaging, and creative through games and books. I have noticed my students are able to connect and participate in conversations about these topics with more success when they hear it through a story or practice the skill in a game.
I am looking to expand my resources to include more opportunities for hands on activities to practice social and emotional skills. One resource I am particularly interested in is Brick Based Counseling. My students love to play with Legos, so adding social emotional learning while playing with Legos seems like a perfect combination! I have also added resources to my Wishlist such as a basketball goal, board games, and books in order to reach all of my student's interests.
