The texts that you helped put on the shelves are classics that students can dive into and connect with. \r\n\r\nRoutinely, students stop into my classroom and ask to borrow books to read. Many of my students have taken these books home, devoured them, and return for others. Another wonderful side effect of this project are the students who are not assigned to me, stopping by and asking for a certain book because their friend recommended it. \r\n\r\nBecuase of your help, we have noticed a bit of a reading renaissance this year that we hope to continue fostering.

These resources allow them to practice strategies for staying calm and focused, which is vital for their well-being and academic growth. The yoga ball has become a favorite in the classroom, providing a fun and interactive way for my students to release energy and stay engaged during lessons. The stress balls have proven to be an invaluable resource, helping my students to manage anxiety and remain calm in challenging situations.
