My Project

LEGO items and Writing stationery are great opportunities for students to freely create and develop practical skills along with social skills in the free space of play. We need a pencil sharpener to keep the lead sharp, books to keep the mind sharp, and Black History bracelets for self-expression and identity.

Providing students with supportive opportunities to be their best selves is the ultimate goal of all educators.

Creative, regulated, self-aware students add to the rigor of learning when in a welcoming, affirming, and safe environment. Mental and emotional health is good health!
