The addition of sensory mats and fidget tools has given students healthy, constructive ways to release stress and refocus their energy. Many children now use this space independently when they feel overwhelmed, showing growth in their ability to self-regulate and recognize their own needs.\r\n\r\nThe sensory mats, especially the colorful liquid tiles, have been a huge hit with students. They love watching the swirling colors move under their feet and hands, and the visual and tactile stimulation provides instant calm and grounding. Fidget toys and other sensory tools have also supported focus and reduced anxiety during challenging moments, while the social-emotional tools guide students in identifying their feelings and practicing coping strategies.\r\n\r\nThis calm-down corner has quickly become an essential part of our classroom, helping students feel supported, understood, and safe. Because of your donation, my students are not only developing stronger emotional regulation skills now, but they are also gaining strategies they can carry with them throughout their lives. We are so grateful for the lasting impact you've made on their well-being and success.","fullyFundedDate":1756174871382,"projectUrl":"project/the-reset-retreat/9445241/","projectTitle":"The Reset Retreat","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ballard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8518138_orig.jpg?crop=2093,2093,x1080,y1426&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1751568636918","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsballard24"},{"teacherId":8518138,"projectId":9444980,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, my students have been able to experience a more colorful, organized, and creative classroom environment. The Epson printer has made a tremendous difference by allowing me to print engaging visuals, differentiated activities, and personalized resources right when my students need them. Having these vibrant materials readily available has helped keep students motivated, supported their unique learning needs, and enhanced our daily lessons in meaningful ways.\r\n\r\nThe bulk crayons have given every child the chance to freely explore their creativity without the worry of running out of supplies. This has encouraged more independence, boosted confidence, and helped strengthen fine motor skills through drawing, coloring, and hands-on activities. Our new library display shelf has also transformed the way students interact with books. By making our classroom library more inviting and accessible, students are more eager to browse, choose, and enjoy stories during reading time.\r\n\r\nOverall, this project has created a brighter and more engaging learning environment where students can grow academically while also nurturing their creativity and love of reading. Your support has had a direct and lasting impact on their learning experiences, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunities you've provided my students.","fullyFundedDate":1752417863001,"projectUrl":"project/kindergarten-in-full-color/9444980/","projectTitle":"Kindergarten in Full Color","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ballard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8518138_orig.jpg?crop=2093,2093,x1080,y1426&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1751568636918","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsballard24"},{"teacherId":7468480,"projectId":8775032,"letterContent":"My kids have been LOVING their new headphones!

They talk about how soft the ear coverings are and that they don't hurt their ears like their old headphones. This has saved us so much time in getting settled with supplies as well as encouraged students to stay focused and on task during their digital learning! Did I mention they're sound proof? This has been a game changer for students to use even without the sound from their computer, but just as a sound proofing for them to focus during their work!
