My Project

I teach science to 6th graders. Being new to middle school, these students have a big adjustment to become more independent and find their paths to success.

Building strong social-emotional skills will help students find their way in middle school.

The items in my project are chosen to help students choose calming activities that will help them focus on their studies.

Students will have the opportunity to listen to music on their headphones, use stress balls, and neon write words of encouragement to classmates on our black science lab tables.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
