Peterson (K) — Social-Emotional Learning Books A carefully selected collection of books focused on emotions, relationships, and self-awareness is helping kindergartners build the social-emotional foundation they need to thrive.

First Grade — New Toys to Support ARC Studies Units 1–3 Every first grade classroom received the same set of hands-on materials — animal figurines, wood blocks, books, and puzzles — to bring their ARC curriculum units to life. These open-ended tools encourage curiosity, creativity, and deeper engagement with the content.

Tropp (2) — Wiggle Stools Wiggle stools give second graders the ability to move while they work, which makes a bigger difference than you might expect. They help improve posture, support focus, and reduce the restlessness that can make it hard for kids to settle into learning.

Rosinski (3) & Ellis (2) — Soft Start Materials Starting the school day with a calm, low-pressure transition sets students up for success. These classroom bins — stocked with brain flakes, puzzles, pixel art, and Magnatiles — give kids a welcoming way to ease into the morning before the day gets going.
