Everyday, our students start class by journaling for 10 minutes with a question of the day. This is an important skill for them to practice in organizing their thoughts, expressing their feelings, and practicing their hand-writing skills. Students also help themselves to things they need, such as deodorant or toothbrushes. During seminar, I don't have a class, so students will stop by to freshen up or take an item without having to do it in front of other students. \r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the materials they were excited. They were a little apprehensive about having to journal, but now that it has become routine, they enjoy it. It is a nice time to reset during the day with quiet thoughts. Students were very excited about the hair products and stop in if they didn't have time in the morning to finish doing their hair. A few students took one of everything (toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, deodorant, mouthwash, hand sanitizer) and a few asked to take one for a sibling. Students are extremely grateful for the opportunity to practice effective hygiene. \r\n\r\nStudents are currently working on emergency response preparedness and media analysis of emergencies. At the end of the unit we will be making an electronic \"Emergency Preparedness Kit\". Some of the items that were donated through this project might even make it into the emergency kit.","fullyFundedDate":1766764528040,"projectUrl":"project/confidence-closet/9967493/","projectTitle":"Confidence Closet","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hernandez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10388873_orig.jpg?crop=634,634,x0,y2&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1766156933761","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10388873"},{"teacherId":9921220,"projectId":9960326,"letterContent":"My students and I are so excited about the new organizational materials and incentives that you helped fund.
