My Project
This project gives fourth and fifth grade students the opportunity to journal their emotions and feelings on a weekly basis, helping them to build emotional awareness, self-expression, and mental well-being. Each student will receive their own journal to use throughout the school year as a private, reflective space.
This project not only supports students literacy and writing skills, but also promotes stronger mental health, classroom relationships, and overall school engagement.
Through guided prompts and open-ended entries, students will learn to identify their emotions, process challenges, celebrate successes, and build confidence in expressing themselves through writing. Students in my school often face a variety of emotional and environmental stressors.
