  • Calming Corner

    Funded Sep 19, 2024

    Thanks to your generous contributions, this project has made a meaningful difference in the lives of our elementary school students during counseling sessions focused on social-emotional well-being. The fidgets, art supplies, and hands-on materials like Play-Doh and kinetic sand have been instrumental in helping students express their emotions, manage stress, and build coping skills. These tools provide a calming and engaging way for students to process their feelings, especially during challenging moments. Many students who find it hard to verbalize their emotions have used art supplies and sensory tools to communicate and regulate themselves effectively.

    We've noticed increased participation and openness during counseling sessions, as students are more willing to engage and share their thoughts when they have access to these interactive materials. The hands-on activities have fostered a sense of safety and creativity, enabling students to explore their emotions in a non-threatening way. Many have expressed feeling more calm and confident after using these tools, which translates to better focus and behavior in the classroom.

    The color printer has been a game-changer for creating visually impactful bulletin boards and resources that reinforce social-emotional learning. These displays celebrate kindness, resilience, and other key themes while offering students reminders of the tools and strategies they've learned. The bright, engaging visuals have made our counseling space feel more welcoming and inspiring, sparking conversations and reflections among the students.

    Overall, this project has helped create a more supportive and nurturing environment for our students. By equipping them with tools for self-expression and emotional regulation, we're helping them build skills that will benefit them far beyond the classroom. Teachers and parents have also noticed the positive effects, with students showing improved emotional awareness and cooperation.

    Thank you for investing in our students' emotional well-being. Your support has brought hope and healing to our school, making a lasting difference in our community.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Nguyen

  • Safe Space... Brave Space

    Funded Sep 15, 2022

    All of your contributions to the brave space safe space have been utilized to its fullest potential. Students are able to use break cards from their classrooms and come when I have open office time. During counseling sessions, students are able to feel comfortable in this space to open up and learn about their feelings.

    SEL is still a very new thing for students to understand - however with everyones contribution it has helped immensely to create a space where student can learn about their emotions and how to regulate their emotions.

    Without you, it wouldn't have been able to come true. Thank you again!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Nguyen

  • Zen Den

    Funded Sep 20, 2022

    Thank you so much for supporting the start of the zen den. I always wanted a safe space for students to be able to openly express their feelings and to have a space where they can just decompress.

    Having a space away from the classroom is very important for social emotional learning. Students are able to differentiate between a space where they can come to speak about their feelings and where they can take a break.

    Students were so shocked and have been having an amazing time utilizing all things inside the zen den.

    The zen den is not quite complete so please keep an eye out on future projects!

    Without you this wouldn't have been possible, thank you!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Nguyen
