We are studying Jazz as a part of our enrichment classes. Student come in the room and are prompted to change their shoes in a very structured fashion. We put on our shoes and then we begin class. At the end of each class we disinfect the shoes with a Lysol spray so the next class can use them too. \r\n My students were so curious and excited about the Jazz shoes. They have Ballet slippers and they look very similar, but are so excited to see different dance shoes. They asked \"Can we please try the Jazz shoes. Please, Please!\" \r\n This semester we are still focusing on Ballet, but after the winter holiday it will be all Jazz until school is out in May. We will be doing a huge performance in May with 370 students and they will be dancing Jazz. They will all have had the privilege of using the shoes and knowing exactly how to pointe their toes! Steps that we work on include \"Chasse\" \"Lindy\" and \"Grand Jete's.\" Many of these steps will be featured in our performance in May.","fullyFundedDate":1747068091208,"projectUrl":"project/jazz-shoes-for-dance-class/9171094/","projectTitle":"Jazz Shoes for Dance Class","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kirsten","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8730965"},{"teacherId":3242178,"projectId":9125320,"letterContent":"I can't express the gratitude I feel, for the Smart Wireless Document Camera you have so generously gifted us.

They were very curious about what the new materials were and what they would be used for. They were surprised with how much paint had arrived and were already planning the painting possibilities. \r\n\r\nAs it is in the end of the school year, we have used our new art materials to make some amazing creations! Our drying rack has definitely served us well and our art is no longer drying on the floor. We used the patterned paper and shape punches to create gorgeous Mother's Day cards for our moms. When spring rolled around, we used our paint and glitter to create amazing flowers to celebrate the incoming season. \r\n\r\nFor my incoming class for the 25-26 school year, I will be starting the year off with our art supplies and starting my class' creativity early.
