Toolbox Project
K-6 students are learning about the Toolbox Project and how the 12 tools in our toolbox can help us problem solve, regulate emotions and get along with others on a daily basis. Students that are K-3 will be coloring and decorating their toolboxes, and they will cut each individual tool out as they are introduced. Students that are 4-6 will be making lanyards and adding to them as they learn about each tool.
