  • Serenity Space: Creating a Calm Corner for Inner Peace

    Funded Aug 11, 2024

    On behalf of myself and my students, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation towards creating a Calm Corner in our classroom.

    Thanks to your support, I will be able to successfully furnish a dedicated space in the classroom where students can take a moment to breathe, reflect, and regain their composure. This Calm Corner is designed to provide a soothing environment where students can manage their emotions, reduce stress, and enhance their focus—key elements in fostering a positive and productive learning atmosphere. By providing them with a space to practice these skills, I hope that students will also be able to learn how to regulate their emotions effectively.

    Your commitment to enhancing the well-being of my students is truly inspiring. We are incredibly grateful for your generosity and for believing in the importance of mental and emotional support in our classroom. Your support not only benefits our students today but also contributes to their long-term success and well-being.

    Once again, thank you for your kindness and support. I am sincerely appreciative that I will be able to provide support for my students mental health in addition to their learning.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Kriss

  • A Sound Investment for Immersive History Learning

    Funded Oct 2, 2023

    My students and I want to share our deepest thanks and gratitude for your generous donation. As you can see, a system for the headphones has been created and the students are able to grab a pair when needed for various activities. Many students have taken advantage of the headphones already, and they have shared how excited they are to listen to their own music while working.

    With the headphones now, I also look forward to the opportunity to introduce new adventures and experiences into our learning through interactive and individualized games and programs. I know that the students will greatly enjoy these new learning tools and I thank you so much for your contribution.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Kriss

    This classroom project was brought to life by Bezos Family Foundation and 8 other donors.
