My Students

Our students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds, different disabilities and are apart of the 530 amazing students at Emerson.

Social emotional learning is so important to every student!

My students are learning how to understand their emotions they can be apart of the general education classrooms. The pandemic made it hard for our students to explain their emotions and to create relationships with each other!

These resources will help provide cognitive, social, emotional and physical benefits that can’t be found sitting at a desk all day.

My Project

These materials will help my students with their social emotional skills. My students are in a behavior inclusion classroom. They have IEPs that focus on helping them learn skills to increase their time in the general education classroom with their same age peers.

My students need activities that help them understand their emotions and them help them how to help best problem solve.

My students also have a hard time maintaining their focus on sitting at their desks. These donations would help they have activities that would help them break up their day, while also learning about social emotional education.
