My Project

My students are amazing! They are hardworking, determined, and ready to learn each day.

The materials in this project are meant to provide my students with books to regulate their feelings and actions and build a stronger classroom community.

My students are amazing, and they need the right books to help them to do their work. These materials will help my students regulate when needed and help us all build a stronger and calmer classroom community. Learning about big emotions is so important at this age. These books will help them identify those emotions and make connections with the characters in the books to show them many people have these feelings.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
