Help me give my students engaging and inclusive materials to use in counseling sessions. Workbooks, fidgets, snacks, and games will all be used to provide skill instruction for special education students with mental health and social emotional concerns.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
These materials will be used to create an inclusive, safe, and engaging space for special education middle school students with social emotional challenges. The materials I have selected (e.g., fidgets, games, snacks, workbooks) will be used to provide direct skill instruction in managing anxiety, social skills, and promoting self-esteem. These materials will be used in a small group setting.
It is important that I provide materials that are relevant and inclusive to the students I serve, as well as their specific social emotional goals.
I want to provide my students with a safe space to explore their strengths, challenges, and emotions, and these materials will assist me in that goal.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
