When the chairs first arrived, the excitement was contagious—several students immediately asked, \"Can we try them now?\" Watching their faces light up as they sat down and discovered how fun learning could feel was a moment I'll never forget.\r\n\r\nWe are using the chairs every day to support speech and language goals. For some of my students, the ability to spin helps regulate their bodies and focus their attention so they can participate more fully. Others use the movement breaks as a reward after practicing challenging skills like word retrieval or sentence building. During one recent session, a student who usually struggles to stay motivated worked extra hard on his speech sounds just so he could earn \"spin time\" at the end. That small success was a huge step forward in his confidence.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to keep weaving the chairs into therapy activities—like turn-taking games, storytelling practice, and group discussions—so that movement and communication naturally go hand in hand. The chairs aren't just seating; they're tools that make learning joyful and accessible.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has created a space where students feel supported, energized, and excited to learn. Thank you for believing in them and for making a difference in their growth.","fullyFundedDate":1750221694346,"projectUrl":"project/spinning-toward-success-enhancing-speec/9226666/","projectTitle":"Spinning Toward Success: Enhancing Speech Therapy with Sensory Seating","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Wood","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5661855_orig.png?crop=4500,4500,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1743711363670","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5661855"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_55246","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":381,"numTeachers":36,"percentFrplEligible":36,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":85,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.3,"schoolId":55246,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lone Dell Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lone Dell Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/fox-school-district-c6/lone-dell-elementary-school/55246"}
