With access to high-quality research and expert guidance, I can refine therapy plans, implement more targeted interventions, and stay current on best practices for early language, articulation, social communication, and literacy development.

Because of you, my students now have access to new hands-on materials that make learning exciting and meaningful every single day.\r\n\r\nThe laminating sheets allow me to create durable learning tools that can be used again and again, ensuring that my preschoolers always have engaging visuals and activities at their fingertips. The batteries keep our classroom materials running smoothly, so our students never have to miss out on interactive learning opportunities.\r\n\r\nWith the Magna-Tiles and our new spatial relations game, my students are exploring problem-solving, creativity, and early STEM concepts through play. These materials encourage cooperation, perseverance, and imagination—skills that will benefit them for years to come. And the stickers provide just the right motivation and positive reinforcement to celebrate their growth and accomplishments.\r\n\r\nYour gift makes a real difference for my students.

The materials from this project have already made such a difference in our classroom. As a school psychologist, I work closely with students who benefit from extra support with executive functioning skills like planning, organization, and emotional regulation. These new tools have helped make those abstract skills more concrete and accessible.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments was seeing a group of fourth graders light up when they explored the visual schedules and fidget tools for the first time. One student said, \"Wait... this helps my brain feel calmer!\" We've used the materials to build personalized routines and create visual supports that help students feel more independent and confident in their day.\r\n\r\nRight now, we're working on a self-regulation project where students are identifying their own \"brain traps\" (like perfectionism or impulsivity) and using tools from this project to come up with strategies. It's been incredible to watch them take ownership of their learning and emotions.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, my students feel seen, supported, and empowered. We're so grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1727462788664,"projectUrl":"project/building-up-students-social-skills-and/8573575/","projectTitle":"Building Up Students' Social Skills and Executive Functioning After Covid","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gemma","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9236337_orig.jpg?crop=2268,2268,x0,y136&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1693328349760","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9236337"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_41330","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":342,"numTeachers":19,"percentFrplEligible":35,"percentAsian":15,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":44,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"18.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":62.3,"schoolId":41330,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Walnut Hills Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Walnut Hills Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/cherry-creek-school-district-5/walnut-hills-elementary-school/41330"}
