Students were immediately excited to explore the hands-on, sensory-based materials. Tools like kinetic sand and motion bubblers help students self-regulate, manage emotions, and stay focused. It has been powerful to see them independently use these strategies to return ready to learn.\r\nThe STEM materials have strengthened both academic skills and classroom community. Magnetic blocks support patterning and math visualization, while the Tetra Tower game builds problem-solving, focus, and teamwork. STEM kits encourage collaboration as students learn about sources of power and build projects together. The art activity book has also become a calming tool, with students creating pictures to encourage others—building both emotional regulation and empathy. These materials will continue to support daily instruction, sensory breaks, and social-emotional learning, helping every student grow, connect, and thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1770423582290,"projectUrl":"project/stem-that-moves-builds-and-calms/9939456/","projectTitle":"STEM That Moves, Builds, and Calms","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tonya","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9929175_orig.jpg?crop=936,936,x0,y174&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1740189679661","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9929175"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_73818","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":603,"numTeachers":50,"percentFrplEligible":6,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":69,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":83.3,"schoolId":73818,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Chapman's Retreat Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Chapman's Retreat Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/tennessee/williamson-county-schools/chapman-s-retreat-elementary-school/73818"}
