The project was fully funded near the end of the school year so although my students were not able to use all of the donations this past school year, the items will be put to good use for the 2025-2026 school year. As the project came to a close, most of the original products that I had on the wish list were unavailable so I needed to select new items. With the funds raised, I was able to get wobble chairs, two small library bookshelves, a class set of chair pockets, a dollhouse, a magnet set, and wobble chair feet. I am excited to set everything up in my new classroom since I am moving to a larger room for next year.
