He was able to participate in the group discussion without shutting down—a huge step forward for him.\r\nNext, we'll be incorporating these tools into lessons on resilience and problem-solving. Students will use play dough and mats to create \"calm-down plans,\" and books paired with themed plushies will help reinforce positive coping strategies in a fun, relatable way.\r\nYour contribution has created a safe haven where every child feels seen, valued, and supported.
