My Project

Students seem to have an increased need for social - emotional skills training this school year. By having tools to be proactive in teaching coping strategies along with utilizing tangibles will assist in building a safe environment and allow students to channel their social and emotional needs appropriately in the classroom. The requested items will assist me in being prepared and allowing positive outcomes for the challenges my students are experiencing, in turn assisting in increased success academically, socially, and emotionally. I feel these items will produce positive outcomes for the challenges the students are experiencing and I would love to be able to share my success and techniques used with other educators.

Thank you,

Julie
