Thanks to your support, my classroom now has a beautiful new rug that has made an incredible difference for my students and our daily activities.\r\n\r\nThe rug has transformed the way we interact and learn together. Students can now come right in, find their spot on the rug, and engage with lessons more easily. The different colored sections of the rug have been especially helpful, as they correspond to our table colors. This simple yet effective system allows for seamless transitions between tables and the rug, giving the classroom a more organized and harmonious flow. It's amazing how such a thoughtful design can create such a positive impact.\r\n\r\nBefore the rug, students had to sit on the cold, hard floor, and I often felt uneasy about its cleanliness. Now, the rug provides a clean, comfortable space for them to learn, discuss, and create. The excitement on their faces when they saw the rug for the first time was unforgettable—they were thrilled! Many of them were amazed that people they didn't even know would donate to improve their art room experience. Your kindness has left a lasting impression on their young minds.\r\n\r\nSince adding the rug, we've done so much together. It has become the center of our classroom activities: we've engaged in art critiques, watched inspiring videos about various artists, and brainstormed ideas for new projects. From working with paint, markers, and oil pastels to exploring clay and crayons, the rug has been a foundational space for our creativity. I'm proud to say the students have been incredibly respectful and responsible, keeping the rug clean and stain-free, as they truly value this gift.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has not only improved the physical space of our classroom but also enriched the learning environment. You have given my students a place where they feel welcomed, comfortable, and inspired to create. On behalf of all of us in the art room, thank you for making such a meaningful difference in our lives. We are deeply grateful for your kindness and support.","fullyFundedDate":1728592172383,"projectUrl":"project/warm-up-our-art-time-a-rug-for-collabor/8723428/","projectTitle":"Warm Up Our Art Time: A Rug for Collaborative Creativity!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Megan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9232899_orig.jpg?crop=901,901,x0,y180&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725028412274","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9232899"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_42083","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":255,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":80,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":68,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.8,"schoolId":42083,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Eiber Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Eiber Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/jefferson-county-school-district-r-1/eiber-elementary-school/42083"}
