Was there a particular component that struck a chord with your class?
The trusted adult letters. My class were so excited to open and read these. One child was absent on the day we did this and different students came up to me during the day to tell me I had to save his letter and give it to him on his return. They felt it was very very important.
Have you noticed change in your students confidence in the classroom?

Building on self awareness
How has this the kit influenced the way in which students speak to each other?
I think this remains a work in progress but they have really developed the language, the vocabulary they have for communicating.
Were you surprised at the role media plays in the wellbeing of your students?
Were you / your students surprised by the responses to your statistical inquiry?
Yes
Which response stood out most?
That children this young (Year 4) are really thinking about how they compare to others. They weren't always aware of the negative way they are being influenced.
How impactful were the Dove Self Esteem project videos for students?
Have your students continued to independently use the Daily Check In / Rise & Shine wall?
Yes
What is the legacy this kit will leave behind on your learners?
I hope that the legacy is the letter they have, a physical artefact to lift them up when they are down.
