A royal crown can represent the student’s uniqueness or pride in oneself or their family heritage (history, ethnicity, or the individual's interests). 

This will be an activity or exercise to celebrate that student's culture or heritage, interests, or individuality as a person.

Program Focus: Teaching self-confidence and authenticity (individuality) or celebrating their family heritage or culture.

I am an Enrichment Program Director with a nonprofit (501c3) and LLC. I regularly contract and partner with local schools and after-school programs using various art mediums and art-integrated curricula to teach (SEL) Social Emotional Learning competencies and 21st Century Life Skills. Art can also be very therapeutic and relaxing and helps to ease tensions or frustrations that a child may not otherwise be able to express.

With over 30 years of experience working with youth and teens, I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Organizational Leadership and Master's degree in SEL. As an educator, I love to see children excited in their exploration and self-discovery. I've witnessed children initially expressing doubt about their abilities, only to accomplish remarkable feats with patient guidance and coaching!
