My Project

Supporting executive functioning at the middle school level is essential to promote academic and SEL wellness. I plan to use the materials within the Donors Choose for organization, preparedness, and small group work. Help me gift folders, pencils, pens, pouches, etc, to my students by giving them the tools they need to stay organized and prepared! On the first day of school, students will be handed their materials as a “welcome” to start the school year off on a good note- a note of success! All other materials will be used for small group work to support executive functioning skills in those who qualify for support. Thank you for supporting us.
