My Project

My students try so hard to stay engaged, be on task and ask the best questions. We have also incorporated a lot of small, social-emotional learning activities that help drive the subject of Health.

We are just cutting the surface of SEL.

Teaching the children to learn empathy and sympathy and opening up playing these SEL games is something really special.

These games, art supplies and learning resources will help us do that.

This year we have taken a very a big interest in not only worrying about ourselves, but each other. Social-Emotional learning both inside and out of the classroom is key in becoming better students and people.
