In an elementary setting, students often bring an abundance of energy—and sometimes stress—into the building. These materials have transformed our daily routine by giving us a physical space for mindfulness and independent reading.\r\nBefore these mats arrived, we tried to do \"brain breaks\" on the hard tile floor, which was uncomfortable and often distracting for the kids. Now, when I announce it's time for independent reading, the excitement is palpable. The students love the responsibility of retrieving their mats from the new storage unit and finding their \"personal island\" on the floor. These mats don't just provide comfort; they provide a defined boundary that helps my students stay focused and respect each other's personal space during reading time.\r\nYou haven't just given us equipment; you've given us the tools to build a calmer, more focused learning community.","fullyFundedDate":1764726022280,"projectUrl":"project/yoga-mats-reading-space/9855923/","projectTitle":"Yoga Mats Reading Space!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kay","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3099321"},{"teacherId":1951104,"projectId":9553017,"letterContent":"THANK YOU SO MUCH for funding this project!
