My Project
I am the teacher of 25 little curious (and eager learning) Kindergartners. These special children have perceived through dire circumstances and have continued to amaze me with their readiness to take on each new day. Due to COVID-19, there is both an academic and social gap that some students show that I am trying to fill as their teacher. Teaching academic and social skills is something that takes patience and dedication not only from the teacher but also from the students as well. With these supplies, I would like to incorporate mindful art into our day. As a class, it will be a time for us to relax and focus on being creative therefore promoting children's mental health. I also included different materials such as a book case so students have a library in the classroom to go to for quiet reading. Fidget toys are also another great tool to use for both academic support as well as emotional well-being. Overall, I hope to use these materials that I request as a means to boost both my student's mental health as well as tapping into their creative minds to promote academic learning in the long run.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
