They have responded so well with understanding when they are upset or deregulated to take a moment and breath. \r\n\r\nAs soon as my students saw the tent they have been very excited. I was worried that it may be taken advantage of or be a target of something to destroy but it has not. I probably only have a student in there 3 or 4 times a day. Not everyone student wants to go inside a tent with calming toys BUT the students that need it willingly do. It's actually quite miraculous how at only 4 years old they know. \r\n\r\nI did not have a calming corner last year and I can see now how it would have made a huge difference. I really appreciate your generosity and willingness to give. I love the calming corner and so do my students.","fullyFundedDate":1746648218586,"projectUrl":"project/my-special-needs-students-need-a-calming/9171246/","projectTitle":"My Special Needs Students Need a Calming Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Prelle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9881022_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1738413770621","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9881022"},{"teacherId":9634239,"projectId":8674725,"letterContent":"With the resources that were purchased were able to get more in depth when learning about science topics.
