Because of you, my students now have access to adaptive and sensory-friendly materials that are already making a meaningful difference in our music classroom.\r\n\r\nWe are using the new resources daily to help students regulate, focus, and fully participate in music-making. During our first week with the materials, one moment stood out: a student who often becomes overwhelmed during group activities chose to spend a few minutes in the sensory tent with a calming fidget, then proudly rejoined the class to sing with their peers. Other students are using visual whiteboards and carpet markers to follow routines, while adaptive tools allow everyone to engage in rhythm, movement, and sound exploration together.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the materials, their reactions were pure joy and curiosity. They were excited to explore the sensory tools, amazed by the Hoberman sphere, and eager to try the instruments. Several students immediately shared which items helped them feel calm or focused, and it was clear they felt seen and supported. The classroom atmosphere became more relaxed, confident, and joyful almost instantly.\r\n\r\nNext, students will continue using these tools as we build ensemble skills through steady beat, rhythm patterns, and expressive performance. We are beginning small-group music projects where students collaborate using movement, instruments, and visual supports. These resources ensure that every student—especially those with diverse needs—can contribute, succeed, and experience the power of making music together.\r\n\r\nYour support goes far beyond supplies. You helped create a classroom where all students feel safe, included, and capable. Thank you for believing in my students and for helping us prove that music truly belongs to everyone.","fullyFundedDate":1760648495137,"projectUrl":"project/music-for-everybody/9734488/","projectTitle":"Music for Everybody","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Burza","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10271139_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y211&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1758334079623","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10271139"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_91459","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":727,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":67,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":82,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"21.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.1,"schoolId":91459,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about John Marshall Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"John Marshall Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/anaheim-elementary-school-district/john-marshall-elementary-school/91459"}
