The pandemic brought this fear along with it causing children to not want to step out of their comfort zones. It is crucial in life to make mistakes and step out our comfort zones, because it we don't we never learn. I want to make sure that I am making a positive impact in my future classroom. Allowing my students to feel that excitement and motivation instead of the dread that plagues them now. ]]> 2022-11-03 23:38:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2369240730 mp996357 https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2369240967 There are a multitude of ways to aid in the betterment of children's mental health on both the small and large scale. Some small scale ways to help could be tutoring a child at the local school or volunteering with the local Big Brother/Sister organization to help children in the foster care system. Large scale opportunities consist of donating and volunteering for organization like UNICEF. One of their main goals is to help children and families who have been affected by tragedies occurring around the world. ]]> 2022-11-03 23:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2369240967 mp996357 https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2371294572 If we do not act now there could be greater consequence's. Children have had to face so many things that past generations could not fathom. From pandemics to wars between countries. This directly impacts children's mental health in both the academic setting and social setting. Students are scared because they do not know what will happen next. As a society we need to be aware of this growing epidemic, and know that just because we do not visably see a problem it does not mean one is not present ]]> 2022-11-05 20:18:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2371294572 mp996357 https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2371315864 2022-11-05 21:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mp996357/br2njyofiutf70lx/wish/2371315864
