Many of my students have unique sensory, motor, and regulation needs, and having options like wobble stools, floor cushions, and beanbags allows them to choose a space that supports their bodies and attention. When students feel physically grounded and calm, they are more engaged, more willing to participate, and more confident in trying new tasks.\r\n\r\nBeyond comfort, flexible seating has transformed the overall tone of our self‑contained classroom. It encourages independence by letting students make choices about where they learn best, and it fosters a sense of ownership over their environment. I've seen students who once struggled to stay focused become more motivated and successful simply because they can move, wiggle, or settle into a spot that works for them. This shift has created a more inclusive, responsive learning space where every child can access instruction in a way that honors their strengths and supports their growth.","fullyFundedDate":1761149043548,"projectUrl":"project/flexible-seating/9686099/","projectTitle":"Flexible Seating","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cooper","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10242991_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759106226625","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10242991"},{"teacherId":10242991,"projectId":9920537,"letterContent":"Having literature that my K–2 students with moderate intellectual disabilities can access and talk about on their AAC devices has transformed the way they connect with stories. When books are paired with vocabulary they can express, my students suddenly have a voice in the reading experience. They can label characters, share observations, and participate in discussions that once felt out of reach. This access builds confidence, strengthens language skills, and helps them feel included in a core part of early childhood learning. Watching them light up as they \"say\" something about a book—sometimes for the very first time—is incredibly meaningful.\r\n\r\nBeyond communication, accessible literature has deepened their engagement and sense of belonging in our classroom community. When students can interact with stories in a way that matches their abilities, they become active participants rather than silent observers. They make choices, answer questions, and share ideas alongside their peers. This shift has created richer literacy moments, stronger relationships, and a classroom where every child's voice—spoken or generated through AAC—is valued and heard.","fullyFundedDate":1767802894636,"projectUrl":"project/ela-for-aac-device-users/9920537/","projectTitle":"ELA for AAC Device Users","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cooper","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10242991_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759106226625","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10242991"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_58852","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":395,"numTeachers":27,"percentFrplEligible":67,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":9,"percentLatinx":68,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"14.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":65.9,"schoolId":58852,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lehi Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lehi Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/mesa-public-schools/lehi-elementary-school/58852"}
