My Project

Students have been majorly impacted by COVID-19. Students at much higher rates are coming to school needing extensive support to regulate their emotions, handle peer-to-peer conflict, and work through "tough" situations.

Each day, we are faced with classrooms full of kids who need so much more than reading, writing, and math in school.

Our students' number one priority, especially at the beginning of the year, is social emotional learning.

These materials will support my students when they are feeling dysregulated and overwhelmed. The goal is that these items can be used by all kids in my classroom when needed.
