We use it for our morning meetings, story time, learning activities, and games, and it has quickly become the heart of our classroom.\r\n\r\nThe children are so excited to have a special place to sit together, learn new things, and share stories. It's amazing how something as simple as a carpet can bring so much joy and help create a sense of community in our room.

The headphones and reading area rug you helped provide have made a tremendous difference in my 4th grade classroom.\r\n\r\nThe headphones helped students who did not have any headphones. It gave them the ability to focus during independent learning. For many of my students, especially those who struggle with distractions or have learning differences, this truly helped them zone into what they were working on.\r\n\r\nThe reading rug transformed a corner of our classroom into a cozy, welcoming space. It's become a favorite spot for students to read, participate in small-group activities, or sit at and play uno during indoor recess. Having a designated, comfortable area for reading has helped foster a love for books and has encouraged more students to choose reading during their choice time.\r\n\r\nYour donation didn't just supply materials—it helped create an environment where students feel safe, focused, and excited to learn. Thank you for investing in their success and well-being.","fullyFundedDate":1735052971157,"projectUrl":"project/first-year-teachers-classroom-project-/8669791/","projectTitle":"First Year Teacher’s Classroom Project (4th grade)","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Philp","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9684324_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725921579974","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9684324"},{"teacherId":2045475,"projectId":8627654,"letterContent":"I want you to know my students could not have been happier with the donations they received. I waited until they went to P.E. to update our classroom with all of the new treasures. When I opened the door, they started cheering and jumping up and down in the hallway. Once I calmed them down and convinced them to enter the classroom they all stood near the door with their hands covering their faces. Some of the kiddos cried! They could not believe that strangers and friends could and would donate so much to make their learning environment a warmer and more inviting place to learn, discover, and grow. \r\n\r\nIt was one of the most beautiful moments of my teaching career and I know my students will never forget the transformation. \r\n\r\nWhile I thought the Lego sets would be the runaway hit, it was the sky-themed covers for the classroom lights. My students continue to enter the classroom in the morning and immediately look skyward and smile. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you once again for your thoughtful and generous donations.
