Students are using it during independent work time, allowing those who need movement to stay physically engaged while remaining focused and productive. It has also become a valuable tool for emotional regulation—students who are feeling overwhelmed have found that using the cruiser helps them reset and return to their tasks with a clearer mind. The immediate and positive response from our students highlights how the Classroom Cruiser supports both academic focus and social-emotional well-being, making it a truly impactful addition to our classroom.\r\n\r\nThe students were absolutely overjoyed when the Classroom Cruiser arrived. Their excitement was infectious, and it quickly became a highly sought-after tool. On the first day, we had to create a rotation system just to ensure everyone had a chance to experience it. It was heartwarming to see students not only enthusiastic about trying something new, but also respectful of each other's time and turns. Their reactions have shown how much they value having new, inclusive tools that support different learning and regulation needs.\r\n\r\nAs we continue to integrate the Classroom Cruiser into our daily routines, we anticipate even greater impact. It is already helping students develop self-awareness around their learning preferences and emotional states. This tool empowers them to make choices that support their own success—whether that means moving while working or taking a few minutes to regulate before returning to a task. We're grateful to have this resource in our classroom and excited to see how it continues to support our students' growth.","fullyFundedDate":1746783996392,"projectUrl":"project/self-regulation-classroom-cruiser/9046849/","projectTitle":"Self-Regulation Classroom Cruiser","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Jensen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9891234_orig.jpg?crop=576,576,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1736524740599","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9891234"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_79244","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":283,"numTeachers":23,"percentFrplEligible":35,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":86,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"4 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"12.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":79244,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about C.L.
