Nothing better than Sensitive Books for Stress Management.
Help me give my students more books for their Social Emotional Learning like Emotions and Stress Management.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Vargas's classroom raised $532
This project is fully funded
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
Having specific books for emotions and stress management will allow my SEL students to understand that life is much better than what they think sometimes.
My goal for this project is to create a designated space in my classroom where students can go when they need to calm themselves or take a brain break.
My students are special because most of them are in need of a special place where they go and understand that all problems have a solution. Also, they need a person who can listen and help with their traumas and emotions.
More than three‑quarters 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
