Based on your generosity, we now have a really peaceful space filled with the canopy tent, cozy seating, and sensory tools that help my students self-regulate. The kids were in complete awe when they saw the calm corner. Some looked at the pictures in the books, and others tested out the fidgets and breathing visuals.\r\n\r\nThe calm corner has quickly become a part of our classroom routine. Students use it during transitions between activities, during independent learning time, and even with each other when they need a break. The next step for our small group community is using the space to support our growing social-emotional learning. We're working on identifying feelings and practicing coping strategies, and the calm corner has been a place for them to practice. I can already see my students becoming more confident and mindful in managing big feelings.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in my students and making my classroom feel more comfortable and welcoming. Your generosity is not just giving us materials, but rather giving my students a chance to feel safe, successful, and cared for every day. For that, I am entirely grateful. Happy holidays.","fullyFundedDate":1756396921238,"projectUrl":"project/calm-corner-for-big-feelings/9451162/","projectTitle":"Calm Corner for Big Feelings","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Achee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10073027_orig.jpg?crop=277,277,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752168070383","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10073027"},{"teacherId":5347880,"projectId":9259200,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our classroom STEAM supplies!
