This space allows students to step away from overwhelming situations, practice healthy coping strategies, and return to class focused and ready to learn. By offering tools such as floor cushions and mindfulness resources, students can develop emotional awareness and resilience, supporting both their mental health and overall well-being.\r\n\r\nIn addition to emotional support, the Calming Corner offers resources that help students plan for their future. Books on post-secondary education, trade schools, and career paths allow students to explore options, set goals, and make informed decisions about life after high school. Having access to these materials encourages self-directed learning and goal-setting, helping students take ownership of their education and long-term aspirations.\r\n\r\nUp-to-date technology, such as laptops or educational software, further enhances the learning experience. Students can access interactive tools, conduct research efficiently, and complete digital projects, preparing them for college and career success in a technology-driven world. Overall, the Calming Corner fosters a positive, respectful classroom culture where students feel empowered to manage their emotions, engage fully in learning, and confidently plan for their futures.","fullyFundedDate":1765594366036,"projectUrl":"project/the-imagination-oasis/9914874/","projectTitle":"The Imagination Oasis","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vanta","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8364226_orig.jpg?crop=1152,1152,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1767978094852","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8364226"},{"teacherId":9894225,"projectId":9953752,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our project, \"Soil Science & Hands-On Gardening: Testing pH and Growing Plants.\" Your generosity has provided our students with hands-on tools and materials that made science come alive in the classroom.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, students were able to test soil pH, analyze data, and observe how soil chemistry affects plant growth.
