When we opened the materials together, my students' eyes lit up. There is something truly magical about watching a child realize that someone they haven't even met cares enough about their education to provide them with new tools. That excitement wasn't just about \"getting new stuff\"; it was the realization that their learning space is a place worth investing in.\r\n\r\nWe have been putting these new resources to immediate use, and the difference is tangible. One of the most transformative additions to our room has been the new sensory wall. It has quickly become an essential part of our classroom culture. We are currently working with the Conscious Discipline framework, which teaches students how to recognize and regulate their emotions so they can return to a state where they are ready to learn.\r\n\r\nWhen a student feels overwhelmed, the sensory wall acts as a dedicated \"calm down area.\" It provides the tactile input and focus they need to reset, breathe, and find their center. It is beautiful to watch a student choose to use the wall independently to self-regulate, helping them gain the emotional control necessary to stay focused on our academic goals.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students. You didn't just give us resources; you gave us the confidence to explore, the tools to succeed, and the space to grow both academically and emotionally. We are so grateful to have you as part of our classroom family.","fullyFundedDate":1774627893896,"projectUrl":"project/building-a-sensory-wall-for-emotional-re/10081061/","projectTitle":"Building a Sensory Wall for Emotional Regulation","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Houchin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2444296_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1470525554005","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/briony-houchin"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_10632","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":357,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":54,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":59,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":33,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"3 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.3,"schoolId":10632,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Clear Creek Intermediate School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Clear Creek Intermediate School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/sanger-independent-school-district/clear-creek-intermediate-school/10632"}
