My students and I have already been using them every day, and they have truly helped make our space feel more welcoming and engaging. When the materials first arrived, the students were so excited. The green leaf rug quickly became a favorite spot for morning meetings, read alouds, and partner conversations, and the green leaf wall and neon \"cool kids read books\" sign made our reading corner feel extra special and fun.\r\nWe have already started using everything in meaningful ways throughout our day.\r\n The standing desk and podium has made instruction smoother and allows me to move around the room more easily while still having a central teaching space. The LEGO materials are used during brain breaks and creative thinking time, and the snacks and breakfast bars have been a helpful support during busy mornings. The affirmation station has also helped build a really positive classroom culture, with students regularly reading and using the messages with each other.\r\n We are continuing to build on these resources by using the reading space more intentionally for partner reading and small group discussions, as well as adding more student reflection using the affirmation station. Thank you again for investing in our classroom. These materials are already making a meaningful difference for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1769254843899,"projectUrl":"project/building-minds-bodies-and-belonging-in/10048531/","projectTitle":"Building Minds, Bodies, and Belonging in the Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bomhoff","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10415012"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_81244","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":356,"numTeachers":41,"percentFrplEligible":20,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":74,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"3 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"8.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.4,"schoolId":81244,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Main Road Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Main Road Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-jersey/franklin-twp-school-district-gloucester/main-road-elementary-school/81244"}
