The calming tools and fidgets have quickly become essential parts of our calming corner and are helping students refocus during challenging moments.

They feel proud when they add illustrations to their writing and even more proud when they see their finished work displayed for others to enjoy.\r\n\r\nThe art auction was a huge success and quickly became one of the most loved activities in our room. Students were eager to showcase their illustrated writing and enjoyed using play money to bid on classmates work. This experience helped them practice saving and making thoughtful choices while also celebrating the creativity of their peers. KL strengthened her ability to include clear details in her writing by using illustrations to match and expand the events in her stories. DG improved his vocabulary and sentence structure by explaining his drawings and adding more descriptive language to his work.

Students are improving their decoding skills by using headphones during small group lessons and digital practice, helping them hear sounds more clearly. They are also strengthening their reading fluency as they use the writing wall and displayed anchor charts to support phrasing, expression, and accuracy.\r\n\r\nYour support made this project a success, and my second graders are growing every day because of you.
