Social, Emotional, and Academic Growth for Kindergartners

Help me give my students the opportunity to develop socially, emotionally, and academically.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Yuen's classroom raised $735

This project is fully funded

My Project

I want to target social, emotional, and academic growth with my students in a variety of ways, including the use of positive rewards, snacks, and learning toys. Individual students are motivated to learn in different ways. I want them to establish a positive relationship with learning and help them develop their personal motivation to keep working hard, as well as to help them grown socially and emotionally.

Through play, children learn to interact with others, share, and resolve conflicts.

Toys that encourage imaginative play, such as dolls or building blocks, can foster creativity and problem-solving skills. Additionally, snacks provide essential nutrients and energy for learning and play. A balanced diet can support cognitive development and concentration. Learning toys, specifically designed to teach specific skills like letters, numbers, or colors, can reinforce academic concepts in a fun and engaging way. By combining play, nutrition, and targeted learning, these resources can create a supportive environment for kindergarten students to thrive.
