Their faces lit up with curiosity and enthusiasm, and many of them immediately wanted to explore and ask questions. It created a wonderful sense of excitement and motivation to learn.\r\nWe have been using the new resources during our daily centers, small group activities, and throughout our classroom routines. The sensory chairs have been especially helpful during whole group time. Some of our students benefit from extra sensory input, and the chairs allow them to move and wiggle while still remaining seated and engaged in the lesson. This has helped many of them stay focused longer during read-alouds, discussions, and group activities.\r\nThe vibrating pillows have become a wonderful support tool in our cozy corner. When students are feeling overwhelmed or need a quiet break, they can sit in the cozy corner with the vibrating pillow to help their bodies calm down and regulate. It has created a safe and comforting space for children who need a moment to reset before returning to learning.\r\nWe also used some of the materials to create sensory bins that the students explore during center time. The sensory bins allow children to scoop, pour, sort, and discover different textures while developing fine motor skills and creativity. Students love working together, sharing tools, and using their imaginations while they explore the bins.\r\nOne memorable moment was watching the students collaborate during center time as they explored the sensory bins and shared ideas with one another. It was amazing to see their creativity, communication, and teamwork grow through hands-on play.\r\nThese resources have truly helped create a more engaging, supportive, and interactive classroom environment. Our students are more excited to participate, explore, and learn each day. We are so grateful for the generosity and support that made this possible. Thank you for helping us provide meaningful learning experiences for our students!","fullyFundedDate":1766788475053,"projectUrl":"project/sensory-explorers-learning-through-the/9883826/","projectTitle":"Sensory Explorers: Learning Through the Senses!”","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Aleks","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10346052_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1762657016913","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10346052"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_122451","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":null,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":48,"percentWhite":6,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":38,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Not specified","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Weighted Average","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":80.0,"schoolId":122451,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about District 20 Pre-K Center Z111 on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"District 20 Pre-K Center Z111","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-state-department-education/district-20-pre-k-center-z111/122451"}
