FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hirayama's classroom raised $495
This project is fully funded
My Project
Now, more than ever, our students need Social Emotional Learning. Your generosity will help to provide a wonderful library of books that will accompany the lessons in our Leader in Me program. Books such as Remarkably You and Listening With My Heart will serve as a reference for children, as characters model coping strategies, creative problem-solving, and the acceptance of differences. By having our students engage in conversations about the characters and their experiences, children can develop their social skills, learn to listen and respect others’ perspectives, and build positive relationships.
This classroom project was brought to life by SONIC Foundation
and 2 other donors.
