We Are Here for You!

Help me give my students the tools that can be used to manage their emotions.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McCall's classroom raised $588

My Students

I am a school social worker for an elementary school. My students range from Pre-k to 5th grade. I have the opportunity to work with students on short-term and long-term basis. Short-term supports are available to all students that might need a break when feeling stressed, frustrated, angry or sad especially after returning to in person learning.

I utilize verbal and tactile techniques to support students that require emergency emotional assistance.

All students meet success in different ways and creative tools promote success.

My Project

Returning to in-person learning has been a challenge for students. The materials in this project will be used for students that need a break outside of the classroom. The pandemic has required me to come up with new ideas about supporting students in a safe manner. Students will be given their own personal bin to store items that can reduce stress, anger, frustration, and sadness. Students love to use draw and paint as a method of addressing their emotions. Some students prefer to make things whether it's a craft or building with LEGO.
