My students and I use these items daily to create a space where they feel comfortable, focused, and motivated to learn. For example, during our morning meetings, students gather in our cozy reading area to share their thoughts, set goals, and build community. The flexible seating options and warm décor have encouraged more collaboration and open discussion. One of my favorite moments was seeing a group of students choose to read together on the rug, sharing books and laughter—it felt like a family gathering right in our classroom. Their faces lit up with pure excitement and joy! Many of them immediately commented that the classroom \"felt like home.\" Some even said it was now their favorite place to be because it felt calm, safe, and inviting. The new materials made them feel cared for and valued, which has had such a positive impact on their attitude toward learning and each other. The excitement hasn't faded—they continue to treat the space with pride and gratitude every day.","fullyFundedDate":1755881146726,"projectUrl":"project/help-us-learn-in-a-space-that-feels-like/9409745/","projectTitle":"Help Us Learn in a Space That Feels like Home!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Elizondo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9040651_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754459414906","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9040651"},{"teacherId":2684187,"projectId":9235124,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous contribution to our project!

It was exciting news when I got the notification from that it got funded. You are a blessing to our students and may god give you more.
