Thanks to your support, our students now have access to a spinning seat, a yoga ball seat, and four yoga ball donut seats, which have already begun transforming the learning environment. These flexible seating options provide our students with the ability to choose seating arrangements that best meet their individual needs, promoting comfort, engagement, and a sense of control over their learning experience.\r\n\r\nThe addition of these seating options has had an immediate positive effect on student focus and participation. For many of our students, particularly those with sensory processing needs, the yoga ball seats offer the perfect balance of movement and stability, helping them self-regulate while staying engaged in lessons. The spinning seat, on the other hand, has proven to be a valuable tool for children who benefit from tactile stimulation and physical activity, allowing them to release excess energy in a controlled way while still being an active participant in the class. These options support not only academic learning but also crucial social and emotional growth as our students learn to make decisions about their comfort and needs.\r\n\r\nWe are incredibly grateful for your generous contribution, which has already had such a meaningful impact on our students' experiences. The flexibility to choose seating based on individual preferences and needs fosters a sense of independence and confidence, enabling students to thrive both academically and personally. Your support makes a world of difference, and we cannot thank you enough for helping us create a more inclusive and dynamic classroom environment. With your help, we are empowering our young learners to reach their full potential.","fullyFundedDate":1739372324299,"projectUrl":"project/soaring-sensory-seating/8953110/","projectTitle":"Soaring Sensory Seating","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Laci","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8788212_orig.png?crop=1080,1080,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1679625920266","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/miss-laci"},{"teacherId":395625,"projectId":9091652,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to our DonorsChoose project, which helped us acquire a new classroom carpet!
