My Project

Help my students build lifelong conflict resolution skills with a dedicated peace space in our classroom . This project will fund a Montessori-inspired peace table, complete with a low table, cushions, a peace rose, and calming items like a sensory objects. In this safe, neutral area, students will practice expressing emotions, listening actively, and resolving disputes peacefully. These essential skills will empower them to navigate conflicts constructively, fostering empathy and collaboration for years to come. Your support will provide the tools to create a nurturing environment where every child learns the art of peaceful problem-solving.
