For my Capstone project, I focused on teaching younger kids about mental health. At first, I planned to make stress relief bags for teens at my school, but along the way, I realized I wanted to do something more hands-on and interactive. I decided to shift my project to focus on 5th graders instead. I created a short workshop where I talked to them about feelings, stress, and healthy ways to cope. I made special toolkits for each student that included a mini journal, a stress ball, and two worksheets I designed myself—a calm-down checklist and a feelings tracker. I presented it to a class of 5th graders, and they were really into it. They asked questions, shared their thoughts, and had fun decorating their journals. I learned that I enjoy working with younger students and that I’m capable of leading and teaching in a way that makes sense to them. I also learned how important it is to talk about mental health early and how even small tools can help. This project taught me to be flexible, creative, and confident in my ideas. I’m proud that I was able to make something that could really help someone and that I made a difference in my school community.
