This project is fully funded

My Project

I'm a SEL coordinator at Adlai Stevenson School and I planned to use the resources requested to continue to implement Social Emotional Learning with different activities, lessons and projects that are aligned with SEL. Teaching SEL, its very important to have the necessary tools they need to continue to build and maintain meaningful positive relationships, self-confidence and empathy.

The goal for this project will help scholars better understand their thoughts , emotions in school, their community and the world around them.

My students are special to me because I can identify their disabilities, meet their needs, develop relationships and effectivity participate in school.
