Others grab basketballs and head straight to the black top for a round of hoops. And scattered amongst them all are bouncy balls and soccer balls being thrown and kicked across the playground.

The healthy snacks you helped provide have become a meaningful part of our routine, giving students the fuel they need to stay focused, calm, and ready to learn. Whether it's during a busy literacy block or after outdoor recess, these snacks help students re-energize and feel cared for while they are at school.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the snacks, their excitement was immediate and genuine. Many proudly talked about their favorites and were eager to try new foods. For some students, having a reliable snack at school has been especially important—it helps them feel secure and supported, knowing they won't have to learn while feeling hungry. I've noticed students are more engaged, cooperative, and ready to participate after snack time, which makes a big difference in a kindergarten classroom.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we will continue using snack time as more than just a break. We are connecting it to lessons about healthy choices, sharing, and responsibility, such as cleaning up and thanking one another. These small moments build lifelong habits and social skills. Your kindness has made our classroom a healthier, happier place, and my students and I are incredibly grateful for the impact you've made on our learning community. 💛","fullyFundedDate":1766967881857,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-snacks/9695271/","projectTitle":"Classroom Snacks","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kelley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8125371_orig.jpg?crop=1169,1170,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1633980622960","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8125371"},{"teacherId":7236135,"projectId":9824253,"letterContent":"Thank you for making this project happen!

The students absolutely love the calm-down tent and the weighted stuffies—these quickly became the most cherished tools in the room. When students feel overwhelmed, they know they can step into the tent, cuddle a weighted friend, and take a few mindful breaths. This simple routine has helped even our most anxious learners regain control and rejoin class feeling calm and confident.\r\n\r\nWe have seen fewer emotional outbursts, smoother transitions, and a noticeable increase in cooperation and kindness. Students now independently choose a weighted stuffy or a moment in the tent when they need to refocus, showing incredible growth in their self-regulation skills. One of my students even said, \"The tent helps my heart slow down,\" which perfectly captures how meaningful these tools have become.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, our classroom feels safer, more peaceful, and more supportive. You didn't just fund materials—you helped create a space where every child can learn, breathe, reset, and feel cared for.

These materials have already made our classroom feel more organized, purposeful, and exciting.\r\n\r\nWe are currently using the supplies for center rotations and small-group instruction. The whiteboards and gel crayons are perfect for quick checks for understanding—students show their thinking, I give feedback immediately, and we move forward. The folders and binder pouches have helped students take responsibility for their materials and keep their work organized. Several students have commented that having their own labeled folders makes them feel \"grown up\" and proud of their work. These small shifts have boosted confidence and independence in a way that I could see instantly.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, we are able to spend less time searching for materials and more time learning.
