Thanks to your support, that vision is now a daily reality for 60+ wonderful students.\r\n\r\nIn an elementary classroom, learning requires far more than just sitting at a desk with a pencil and paper. Children need dynamic outlets to move their bodies, build friendships, and learn how to manage stress effectively. The impact of your gift was immediate the moment our package arrived.\r\n\r\nThe new volleyball net and Xcello sports volleyballs have completely transformed our recess time. Outdoor play is no longer just unstructured free time; it has become a vibrant arena for team-building, active exercise, and social growth. My students are learning spatial awareness, physical coordination, and the fundamentals of sportsmanship. More importantly, they are learning how to communicate with one another, cheer each other on, and work together toward a common goal. Watching students who are normally quiet or reserved step up, call for the ball, and celebrate a successful serve with their classmates has been deeply moving. These activities build confidence that translates directly back into the classroom.\r\n\r\nEqually transformative are the Calm Strips now integrated into our daily routine. Emotional regulation is a crucial skill for young learners, but it can be difficult to master without the right sensory tools. Having these discrete, textured strips accessible right on their desks and in our calming corner gives students a safe, quiet way to self-regulate when feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or unfocused. Instead of becoming frustrated during challenging lessons, students now reach for a Calm Strip, take a deep breath, and reset their focus independently. It provides them with a gentle sense of control over their emotional landscape, fostering a safe environment where every child feels secure.\r\n\r\nFor classrooms in historically underfunded, rural communities, resources like these are far more than just supplies—they are a message to our children that their growth, health, and happiness matter to the wider world. By joining together with Colgate-Palmolive, each of you demonstrated a profound commitment to our students' futures. Your investment tells them that their wellbeing is worth supporting, and that encouragement drives them to show up as their best selves every day.\r\n\r\nThank you for choosing to support our classroom, for believing in the power of public education, and for giving my students the exact tools they need to move, relax, and thrive.\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt appreciation,\r\n\r\nMrs. Roth\r\n\r\nTimbo School","fullyFundedDate":1772035064684,"projectUrl":"project/serve-stretch-and-soothe-health-wel/10116113/","projectTitle":"Serve, Stretch, and Soothe: Health & Wellness for Our Class","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Roth","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6447157_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1748779593534","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsroth2020"},{"teacherId":6447157,"projectId":10116131,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredible generosity in fully funding our classroom project!
