Let's Learn About Social Skills and Our Emotions

Help me give my students informative books about social skills and their emotions.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Beverly Hurley's classroom raised $671

This project is fully funded

My Project

In the fall I will be getting a brand new group of 4 and 5 year old kids in my Kindergarten classroom.

Little children have BIG emotions and almost no Social Skills.

The first few weeks of Kindergarten can be stressful for us as educators but it is even more stressful for this children who may have never been out of the house before. All children don't go to Pre-K or head start.

I have chosen many books about social skills and emotions that I think will help my students adjust to their new classroom. I've also selected a gift card from TPT so that I can purchase some items for the class to work on about social skills and emotions.

Thank you for donating to my classroom to help my students learn to cope with their big emotions!
