Self-Expression Through Therapeutic Play

Funded Aug 30, 2021

I'd like to thank you again from the bottom of my heart for all your generosity. It was so kind of you to not only take the time to read my projects intention but you also helped make my goal a reality. It's something I will never forget.

My students were so excited to see all the new Legos they had access to in September. It made welcoming them back so much easier. The first project I had the kids work on was to answer one simple question "How do you feel now that we returned back to school?". The return to this school year wasn't like returning from the previous school years. All my students returned to school after experiencing COVID in different manners. Some of my students elected to be fully remote, were remote part time or returned full time the previous school year. Some of them experienced loss, isolation or sickness from COVID 19 and some didn't notice anything at all. Everyone has experienced COVID 19 in a different manner and it was relieving to know that I can do emotional check-ins with them through play therapy. These legos have played a vital role in enabling my students to express themselves in a comfortable setting. Thank you for granting me access to the tools I need to help make my students happy. I appreciate all your help.”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Uzhca
