By requesting resources that focus on both reading and wellness, you're fostering an environment where students can explore and enhance their emotional and mental health while improving literacy skills. Some specific items could include:
Books on emotional intelligence and mindfulness: These can provide students with strategies to manage stress, understand their emotions, and practice mindfulness, which can help them stay focused and engaged in learning.
Comfortable reading spaces or tools (like cushions, soft lighting, etc.): Creating an inviting space for students to read can make them feel more at ease, leading to better concentration and a more positive learning experience.
Interactive journals or reflection tools: Giving students a chance to document their thoughts and feelings as they read can help them connect personally to the material, enhancing both their cognitive and emotional development.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
