Our wonderful students have been enjoying the new additions and are using them constantly during therapy. Our alphabet rug has kept tiny bodies warm while playing on the floor, given us a comfy crash spot while reading books together, and the alphabet letter pattern is providing a fun way for students to talk about the letters in their names and target sounds we are perfecting. The rolling drawer cart provides a FANTASTIC way for me to organize materials for each week/month by their theme and quick access during sessions. Organizing loose materials (crafting projects, seasonal worksheet projects, visual cues, and small games) has kept our workspace free from extra clutter with no home and helps students focus on the task at hand versus being bombarded with extra distractions. The new toys (car city mat, reusable sticker pads, car ramp) are already being loved as part of evaluations, targeting various aspects of language, and working with target speech sounds in a \"fun\" and functional way.\r\nWhen students first saw our new additions, they were thrilled! Nearly every student on caseload commented on our new rug and many have asked about when they can use our new toys and materials during sessions.","fullyFundedDate":1788793977695,"projectUrl":"project/speech-room-fun-learning-through-play/10596934/","projectTitle":"Speech Room Fun: Learning Through Play","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Belan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10651465_orig.jpg?crop=1224,1224,x0,y77&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1788529298599","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10651465"},{"teacherId":10012387,"projectId":10237936,"letterContent":"My homeroom kids love to work puzzles.

Imagine my surprise when my upper middle schoolers have enjoyed the Tonies as much as the youngest students. Each character has a plethora of activities, songs, stories, and the like on them. There are definitely more favorite Tonies but the interesting thing I have noticed is that these Tonies have increased circulation of the printed books. Some of the books like \"Corduroy\" had been on the shelf untouched for a few years. One child found the book after listening to the Corduroy Tonie.

Because of you during the latest community night, the library was a hoppin' place to be. Seeing so many families playing board games in the library made my day. As the days turned into weeks, things continued to be an encouragement to me as many students would sit during their free time and play games together with other students. Some of the kids were even teaching others how to play chess. The hockey-like game has been a surprising dark-horse hit. The kids aren't quite setting up tournament brackets yet but they are lining up to play...literally.\r\nThank you for helping me change the culture of the library into a hub of activity with plenty of educational fun to go around.
