My Students

My students come from different back grounds and situations. A few with single parents, a few with working parents, but all children that have been impacted by this unpredictable, unprecedented time. They have never known school with out masks, Covid procedures and the unpredictability that it all brings.

My Project

By helping them learn and process their emotions and learn basic coping skills to help them survive in an ever changing. confusing world. The social emotional library I would like to create will help my students feel safe and find the comfort and joy in reading books that are educational and entertaining and will begin to give them basic social emotional tools to deal with their emotions and get along with others. We have all been impacted emotionally by Covid-19 including young children who feed off the emotions of adults and what is happening around them.
