Goal

I would like to help my students improve their social-emotional skills and meet their individual goals this school year.  

 

What will be done with my students

I will use the social-emotional activities to directly instruct my students on proper social skills and meet their individualized social-emotional goals. I will help develop their social skills through collaborative activities and games where they can role play and work through problems and frustrations in a safe space. I will also use the sensory items to help students that need a break from their general education classroom setting to work through strong emotions and deal with sensory overload.  

 

Benefits to my students

My students struggle with social skills and often lack appropriate skills to interact with their peers and adults throughout the school day. Some have experienced trauma and struggle with controlling their emotions and working through strong feelings. I have other students that are autistic and need to work on interacting with their peers and games are a great way to do that. I want to give them a safe space in my classroom where they can come to take a break and engage in sensory calming activities. I also want to help them build social skills strategies that they can use to be successful in their classrooms and in their daily lives.
