Because of you, our students now have access to engaging new resources that are already making a meaningful difference in our daily learning and emotional growth.\r\n\r\nWe use these materials often during our community circle, and the impact has been wonderful to see. The activities are interactive, fun, and thoughtfully designed, which keeps my students excited and fully engaged. They serve as great visual reminders and hands-on tools that help me teach important social-emotional skills such as identifying feelings, calming strategies, problem-solving, empathy, and healthy coping skills.\r\n\r\nThe day the supplies arrived was especially memorable. My students were buzzing with excitement when they saw a brand-new box waiting to be opened. They absolutely love when something new arrives in our classroom, and they could hardly wait to dive in. They wanted to explore every activity right away and were eager to try each one. Their enthusiasm and curiosity truly showed how meaningful these resources are to them.\r\n\r\nThese materials have already strengthened our community circle time by creating opportunities for deeper conversations, teamwork, and emotional awareness. Students feel more confident expressing themselves, practicing calming strategies, and supporting one another. It's so rewarding to watch them grow not only academically, but also socially and emotionally.\r\n\r\nWe will continue to use these resources throughout the year to reinforce SEL lessons and build a positive, supportive classroom community where every child feels safe, valued, and empowered to succeed.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in our students and helping create joyful, meaningful learning experiences. Your kindness and generosity truly make a lasting impact.","fullyFundedDate":1762267702631,"projectUrl":"project/building-community-and-calm-together/9871395/","projectTitle":"Building Community and Calm Together","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Brake","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5821356_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1768535129531","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5821356"},{"teacherId":2970668,"projectId":9924381,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation of the American Revolution map and Paul Revere book for our classroom.
