Support Mental Health with LEGO Flowers
Funded Sep 18, 2024I can't thank you enough for your support in bringing the "LEGO Flowers" project to life in our classroom. Your generous contributions have given my students a new and creative way to engage in mental wellness and self-care. From the moment they saw the colorful boxes filled with LEGO flowers, there was a spark of excitement and curiosity. Many students began experimenting, building intricate arrangements that allowed them to focus, relax, and express themselves in a calming, hands-on activity.
This project has become an integral part of our daily routine, serving as a peaceful break and an opportunity for students to step back from academic stress and regroup mentally. We've set up a designated "Mindfulness Corner" where students can go to work on their LEGO flowers whenever they need to unwind. Building these flowers has proven to be a creative outlet and a way for students to practice patience, focus, and mindfulness.
Moving forward, we plan to incorporate more reflection activities alongside the LEGO projects, encouraging students to express how these moments of creativity help them manage their emotions. This project has truly transformed our classroom into a more supportive, mental health-focused space, and we couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for making a difference in our students' lives!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Martinez
