These tools provide accessible, sensory-rich solutions that empower children to cope with challenging emotions, promoting both their mental well-being and academic success.\r\n\r\nRocking chairs offer gentle, rhythmic motion that soothes overstimulated nervous systems. This motion helps reduce anxiety and fosters a sense of safety and relaxation, enabling students to refocus on learning and social interactions. Weighted stuffed animals, meanwhile, provide deep pressure stimulation, which is scientifically linked to calming the body's \"fight or flight\" response. By offering a comforting tactile experience, these tools create an anchor for students to regain emotional equilibrium.\r\n\r\nMany of my teachers have reported that the students who utilize these resources exhibit improved mood, better emotional control, and enhanced readiness to reengage with classroom activities. By creating a supportive environment where children feel equipped to navigate stress, schools are fostering resilience and building a foundation for long-term emotional health and learning success. The combination of rocking chairs and weighted stuffed animals is a simple yet profoundly impactful intervention for cultivating calm and focus in young learners.","fullyFundedDate":1723685629772,"projectUrl":"project/lets-rock/8392905/","projectTitle":"Let's Rock!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Shannon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3573950_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1460733942015","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3573950"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_53173","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":588,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":68,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":8,"percentWhite":42,"percentIndigenous":3,"percentLatinx":26,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"19.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":69.3,"schoolId":53173,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Creekwood Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Creekwood Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oklahoma/broken-arrow-public-schools/westwood-elementary-school/53173"}
