This project helped breathe new life into the classroom and into our learning rotations. I realized over the first half of the year that our rotations needed more life skills groups that students can actually benefit from and use in their everyday life. I also had many new students join my room that needed more sensory options than what I had. The blankets and pillows are a calm corner favorite and has really helped soothe many students when they are feeling a sensory overload. The light toys, busy boards, and other cause and effect toys have been great additions to stimulate interest and grow connections about how cause and effect work. The kids and I were so excited to get these new supplies and it is all thanks to all of you.","fullyFundedDate":1771008236977,"projectUrl":"project/learning-through-the-senses/10083496/","projectTitle":"Learning Through the Senses","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9737485_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725827607628","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9737485"},{"teacherId":9737485,"projectId":9491117,"letterContent":"Thank you all for you kind and generous donations.
