Hartman’s innovative teaching idea, “Wellness Kits & Craft Bags,” will provide wellness kits consisting of items purchased with the Voya Unsung Heroes grant that promote healthy well-being to better equip middle school students to learn, correct errant behavior, and build healthy relationships with others. The theme of the kits will vary, addressing such topics as good mental health, strategies for managing stress and anxiety, and maintaining positive relationships. For instance, a kit on mindfulness may be a craft bag containing a pack of colored pencils, several mandalas to color, a book on mindfulness, and a bottle of water to drink mindfully. Another bag will focus on connections with others and may contain a book on healthy relationships, a game and a treat to share with a friend.
