My Project

I love using art to teach SEL (social emotional learning) to my students each week. I believe that self awareness builds confidence!

These organizational tools and books will help me teach the weekly SEL lessons.

I am most excited to read the books to my kindergarten through 5th graders. The students in my city need these lessons to teach them how to identify and regulate their emotions. I want to help build confidence within them.

The punch cards will be used to reward positive behavior! If they get 10 punches before the quarter is over, they will earn an art party with choice-based stations.
