They appreciate having a specific place to go when they need support with self-regulation, transitions, or simply taking a moment to reset before returning to an activity.\r\n\r\nThe additional sensory tools have made the space even more functional by giving students different ways to meet their individual needs. The weighted stuffed animal has quickly become a favorite, providing a comforting sensory option that students especially enjoy using while they calm and refocus.\r\n\r\nThese projects have worked together to create more than just a corner of the room - they have created a purposeful space where students can practice recognizing what they need and using appropriate strategies to regulate. When students feel calmer and more prepared to participate, they are better able to engage in therapy and focus on building the communication skills they are working so hard to develop.","fullyFundedDate":1777916286375,"projectUrl":"project/building-our-calming-corner-with-sensory/10168735/","projectTitle":"Building Our Calming Corner With Sensory Supports for Student Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jennifer's Speech Therapy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp910618_orig.jpg?crop=639,639,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1569515637005","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/missjennifer"},{"teacherId":910618,"projectId":10068434,"letterContent":"The new printer has already made a meaningful difference in my ability to create colorful, engaging materials for speech and language therapy.
