You have made a huge impact to our students and to me personally. Our kids, in both, the morning and afternoon classes spend time playing in our sensory area. They love the bubble wall and the other sensory items we have acquired through the year as well! Several students like to bring toys over to the area to play with, in addition to just the things on the wall. \r\n This year we have really focused on finding toys and materials to interest all the kids we have. After using all the money available from state funding, I just started using my own money. And I love being able to have some extra to add to the classroom when I can, but this bubble wall was a bit out of my personal budget. We were so blessed to have the Bubble Wall project funded in one weekend! Me and Sarah are so very thankful!","fullyFundedDate":1737910666446,"projectUrl":"project/cool-calm-cozy-bubble-wall-for-sensory/9069939/","projectTitle":"Cool-Calm-Cozy: Bubble Wall for Sensory Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Janie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9901656_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1737667056001","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/janie-hicks-prek"},{"teacherId":3462545,"projectId":6322067,"letterContent":"We are incredibly grateful to have a set of phonics readers for our first-grade classroom, as they provide essential support for early literacy development.
