We can think it's just a carpet, but this carpet is where my students can comfortably sit to enjoy when I read to them, it's a calming place for many, and since it has the alphabet, words, and numbers in Spanish they are able to play learning games. Their activity worksheets are organized and easy to assess. I could keep going but I don't have enough space. There aren't enough words to express my gratitude for all your donations, thank you, thank you, couldn't have done it this year without them.","fullyFundedDate":1733092199014,"projectUrl":"project/learning-spanish-the-fun-way/8783529/","projectTitle":"Learning Spanish the Fun Way","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cruz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8812539"},{"teacherId":2905642,"projectId":8625561,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for all of the resources.
