My Project

In my classroom I hope to create an environment where students are encouraged to read, work together, communicate, and have opportunities to grow. I know good novels for reluctant readers, social stories for social emotional learning, math games for critical thinking, and classroom incentives assist greatly in this process.

My project aims to cultivate holistic development among students by integrating social-emotional learning, critical thinking activities, and classroom incentives.

Through carefully selected books focusing on themes of empathy, resilience, and self-awareness, students will engage in meaningful discussions, fostering their emotional intelligence. The inclusion of critical thinking games will sharpen their problem-solving skills, encouraging analytical thinking and creativity. Furthermore, by implementing classroom incentives, I seek to reinforce positive behaviors and academic achievements, creating a supportive and motivating learning environment. This multifaceted approach not only enriches academic learning but also equips students with essential life skills, empowering them to navigate challenges with confidence and empathy.
