Virtual Learners Self Care

Help me give my students small ways to help them practice self care for their mental health.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Evans's classroom raised $404

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are learning virtually this year (parent option) due to Covid-19. My students are full of energy, excited to learn, and naturally inquisitive. They want to be engaged in the lessons, instead of being passive learners.

With STEAM/STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) and Problem/Project-Based Learning (PBL) students are engaged and solving both real-life and fictional problems.

Students want to know what they do will matter, and they are our future problem solvers. In my classroom, you will see my students taking risks, and learning from both what works and what doesn't work. Mistakes are not only welcome, but they are also expected, and we all learn from them!

My Project

For my students, it is their second school year of learning virtually. They have distractions at home, and it is difficult to stay focused and motivated.

Students, especially virtual learners, need to learn the school-home balance and providing a small gift card helps them practice self care which is good for their mental health.

Receiving a small gift card in the mail for their favorite lunch restaurant or hobby store is a tangible and extremely motivating way to reward my students. Praising their great work, completing exceptional projects, contests in class, being a great classmate, showing improvement are some examples of encouraging students with a tangible award. Some students simply need a break from the computer screen to practice self-care. Students are learning that self care is part of mental health, and part of self care can be doing something they love, like enjoying their favorite Starbucks drink or a trip to their favorite store with a small gift card to enjoy!
