These resources, including the feeling mats, playdough, and other sensory tools, have become the cornerstone of our daily Social Emotional Learning (SEL) lessons. In a TKâ2nd grade special education setting, having high-quality, tactile, and visual materials is essential, and your gift has provided my students with a vibrant, accessible way to explore their inner worlds.\r\n\r\nThe impact of these books and tools on my students' development has been profound. By focusing on an \"emotion of the week,\" the children dive deep into understanding what different feelings look and feel like. The accompanying vocabulary cards have been particularly transformative, giving them the specific language needed to identify their internal states. When a student feels overwhelmed, having the feeling mats and playdough available allows them to physically engage with their emotions in a constructive way. Watching them connect a \"Spot\" to a physical sensation and then use a regulation tool to find calm has opened up lines of communication that were previously a struggle for many of them. We read one of the books every morning that corresponds with our emotion of the week. \r\n\r\nBecause of your kindness, my students are now much better equipped to describe how they are feeling in the moment and, more importantly, they are learning the actual mechanics of how to deal with those emotions. They look forward to engaging with these stories and supplies every day, and the confidence they've gained in self-advocating for their needs is truly inspiring. Thank you for investing in our classroom and for helping these young learners build a strong, lasting foundation for emotional intelligence.","fullyFundedDate":1767621899579,"projectUrl":"project/help-my-students-build-big-feelings-skil/9875360/","projectTitle":"Help My Students Build Big Feelings Skills with Hands-On Tools!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. B","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9309623_orig.jpg?crop=600,600,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727379875166","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9309623"},{"teacherId":10339264,"projectId":9869746,"letterContent":"We are so incredibly grateful for your generous donations of sensory items and classroom supplies to our 3â5 grade SDC classroom.
