My Project

My students have so much to offer the world, but they need guidance and explicit modeling to understand the social world that we live in. Rich literature with social skills intentionally embedded will positively impact their social skills development.

The books (and two visual timers) and calming pup selected align directly with the social skills curriculum I am utilizing with students lacking strong social emotional skills.

My students range from Kindergarten through third grade with varying social, academic and behavioral needs. These books will not only positively impact my current students, but also years of students to come.
