This has given them the option of a quiet workspace in the middle of a busy classroom. It has also allowed those who don't like the feeling of them to be able to work quietly without them, as the majority of students wear them and work quietly.\r\n\r\nThe alternative seating options have also revolutionized motivation. Students have earned points to be able to use alternative seating options. This has made them coveted items that are well-used and maintained. They are a source of pride, which has been wonderful to see.\r\n\r\nThank you so much for your generosity. As a teacher, I so appreciate the support and it is gratifying to see these items used well by my students and to see them increase their success in the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1767281683907,"projectUrl":"project/meeting-the-social-emotional-needs-of-st/9932495/","projectTitle":"Meeting the Social Emotional Needs of Students","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Gates","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/dr-gates"},{"teacherId":8883106,"projectId":9661216,"letterContent":"We are absolutely thrilled with the new headphones and flexible seating—they have transformed our classroom environment!\r\n\r\nHow We're Using the New Resources\r\nThe flexible seating and headphones have been incredibly helpful during Part Two of our Science Project-Based Learning (PBL). The project requires students to analyze and graph their weather tracking data.\r\n\r\nHeadphones: Students who need deep focus can utilize the headphones to create a quiet, distraction-free zone, allowing them to concentrate on complex data analysis and organization.\r\n\r\nFlexible Seating: The different seating options allow students to choose the environment that best supports their learning style—whether they need to collaborate on a wobble stool or work individually on a comfy floor cushion. This choice has led to higher engagement and better quality work.\r\n\r\nStudent Reactions\r\nThe students' reaction was pure joy! When they first saw the materials, they immediately started trying out the different chairs and cushions, calling them \"comfy\" and \"super cool.\" The quiet focus the headphones provide has been a huge hit for independent work time.","fullyFundedDate":1757568295914,"projectUrl":"project/flexible-seating/9661216/","projectTitle":"Flexible Seating","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hamilton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8883106"},{"teacherId":2057916,"projectId":9599550,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous gift of Roller Coaster Challenge Kits for our second through fifth grade students. With this gift, our students will work together to design, build and test roller coasters. In the design phase, students will learn about physics - force and motion and put that knowledge to the test when designing their roller coaster.\r\n\r\nDuring the design phase, students will have to work together to put their ideas into practice. This is an amazing opportunity to build Social Emotional Learning (SEL) skills. Students will have to both communicate and listen to others to come up with the best design and then build that design.The next stage is for student teams to test their designs. Here they will see what works and what didn't work. From that information, they can adapt and change their design and building strategies. This hands-on activity reflects so many opportunities in education and work - coming up with a plan, communicating that plan and implementation. This is a true opportunity for students to learn and grow. Thank you for this opportunity for our students.","fullyFundedDate":1755721450885,"projectUrl":"project/roller-coaster-challenge/9599550/","projectTitle":"Roller Coaster Challenge","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Grey-Levine","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2057916_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691024241364","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2057916"},{"teacherId":7950395,"projectId":9287857,"letterContent":"Thank you for providing headphones for my classroom. This year, of my 29 students, less than one fourth came with their own headphones. Our school district does not provide them for us. Your generous gift made headphones available for all the students in my classroom. We use them daily for many activities. The students practice math skills using an online personalized, interactive program tailored to each student's skills. They also use them to read books at their level online. In addition, we use them to take assessments three times a year.
