Being able to provide snacks to students is an immense help in many ways.

Students loved all the snacks and the variety that was provided. We don't have vending machines in our school, and although it can be sometimes disruptive for students to leave class to get a snack, we all know that a student learn best when their basic needs are met.\r\n\r\nThanks again.","fullyFundedDate":1762267480108,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-for-counseling-office/9866887/","projectTitle":"Snacks for Counseling Office","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Borders","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7266652_orig.jpg?crop=720,720,x0,y43&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1591732527001","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/counselorsammi"},{"teacherId":8279596,"projectId":8913425,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation of mindfulness supplies, coloring books, and games. My students have really enjoyed having these resources available. We use them as a way for students to take a short break from their classwork when they're feeling overwhelmed or need a moment to reset. It's been especially helpful during long assignments or tough days—students will spend a few minutes coloring or playing a short board game, and then come back to their work more focused and ready to go.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, my students were really excited. They were curious about all the new items and quickly started trying them out. It didn't take long for certain supplies—like the coloring books and board games—to become class favorites. Right now, we're continuing to work on building focus and self-awareness through small daily habits like taking meaningful breaks, managing time, and communicating clearly. These supplies have added a simple but really effective way to support those skills in our daily routine.","fullyFundedDate":1730571450419,"projectUrl":"project/mindfulness-for-juniors-and-seniors/8913425/","projectTitle":"Mindfulness for Juniors and Seniors","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dent","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8279596_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1642616850244","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-dent"},{"teacherId":9817913,"projectId":8908992,"letterContent":"The puzzle board, fidgets and coloring supplies have become a key tool for students to take mental health and self-care breaks in directed studies classes.

I encourage students to self-regulate their motivation and stress using activities like puzzles, coloring, and the calming corner either before initiating or to reward their hard work.
