These items have made a trememdous impact on my students with special needs. \r\n\r\nThe floor spots are big enough that my students with visual impairments can see them. When it is stretching time, they are able to find their spot and sit down on the mat. It is fun also watching them play with it and pick it up, feel the material and explore it overall.\r\n\r\nThe basketball is the PERFECT size for my students in wheelchairs. They were so excited to play with this when they saw it as at the lowest setting, the regular basketballs are too high. \r\n\r\nMy next project is going to try and get some things for field day to help make our special needs students have more success with those games and activities.","fullyFundedDate":1758215126994,"projectUrl":"project/inclusion-for-all/9718764/","projectTitle":"Inclusion for All!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Isralow","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1698041"},{"teacherId":1698041,"projectId":9594074,"letterContent":"How great was this lesson?

They all wanted to start at that center and I had to assure them multiple times they would all get a turn.\r\n\r\nI had so many students that were willing to try a roll that had been scared in the past.

Most people think that PE is just playing games but in my classes we use many manipulatives to help enforce not only physical wellness but the classroom curriculums as well. I integrate literacy, math, science, etc into each one of my lessons.\r\n\r\nMany of these \"games\" I have created require paper and small parts and therefore I needed a place to store them. There was a time when I thought \"I know I have this, but where did I put it?\" or \"where did all of the pieces go?\". These files and boxes and bags may seem underwhelming, but now I know where everything is and I can grab it at a moments notice if a lesson goes a different way than I planned as they often do!\r\n\r\nFor example, we were talking about the bones of the body and a student asked where a particular bone was located. I was able to pop into my office and grab the skeleton pieces I use for a relay and show them while maximizing their time by not having to \"search\" for it.","fullyFundedDate":1753298097612,"projectUrl":"project/organizing-for-the-win/9465380/","projectTitle":"Organizing for the Win!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Isralow","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1698041"},{"teacherId":9628283,"projectId":8842857,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting the purchasing of these books for the library at my school. My students have embraced them whole-heartedly and they are already flying off the shelves and almost always checked out. Students love coming to the library to choose books that they want to read, and having the books they want is crucial to keeping them engaged and fueling their love of reading.\r\nOne unfortunate side affect of the high-stakes testing in public schools is that often student read short passages and then must answer comprehension questions about what they have just read. These practices are great for improving reading comprehension, but frequently dampen the enjoyment of the act of reading. Children usually begin elementary school loving books and loving being read to. As they learn to read they are frequently super excited about their new skills. As they turn the corner from learning to read to reading to learn sometimes that joy can fizzle out if we don't keep that fire of excitement going with fun exciting books to read. That is where this donation comes in. The library is one of the few places that students get free choice and total autonomy of what they want to read. And because they talk to each other they want to read the really good books their their friend just read. Have these extra copies of popular titles is helping keep many more of our children excited about their reading choices and enjoying what they are reading. So again, thank you for your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1733276649860,"projectUrl":"project/popular-titles-for-eager-readers/8842857/","projectTitle":"Popular Titles for Eager Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bridges","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9628283"},{"teacherId":2398078,"projectId":8978729,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the sewing supplies.
