My Project

My class would like to get materials to share with the Kindergarten community to help them when they are feeling upset or sad. My class will teach others how these materials can be used to help promote wellness in our community.

We are seeing many kindergarten and TK friends sad or mad on the playground.

We would like to offer some alternatives on the playground for when they are needing to calm down.

We have chosen items that students can use to help them calm down. I will set up an area on the playground to help all of the students in the Kindergarten community. We are promoting wellness in our community and our sharing what we have learned to help other mad and sad students.

My students are excited to share some materials with their peers to help them increase their wellness on the playground!
