The stools are bright and inviting, and the comfy cushions on top make them a perfect seating choice for small-group work and independent reading. Because the stools are portable and appropriately sized, students can move easily between the back table and other learning areas, which has improved collaboration and kept transitions smooth. The wobble cushions have been a wonderful addition for students who need gentle movement to stay focused; they offer a safe, sensory-friendly option that reduces restlessness and helps students remain engaged during lessons.\r\n\r\nYour generous support is already making a measurable difference in our classroom — the students absolutely love the new seating and use it every day. With increased comfort and movement, I've noticed longer periods of concentration during writing and reading, plus more productive discussions during group activities. Thank you for helping create a learning environment where every child can be comfortable, supported, and ready to participate. We are deeply grateful for your investment in our students' success.","fullyFundedDate":1765304080915,"projectUrl":"project/empower-student-focus-with-stools-and-wo/9615141/","projectTitle":"Empower Student Focus With Stools and Wobble Cushions Donations","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Garcia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9771951_orig.jpg?crop=1448,1448,x0,y111&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747014479356","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9771951"},{"teacherId":9300954,"projectId":7885276,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donations. The things you donated helped my class tremendously. They were so excited to have been gifted the items we did.\r\nThe kids were thrilled to have more materials to expand their STEM curiosity. I used them as early finishers for the students to have access to when they completed their work.\r\nThe social-emotional items that were donated have helped me provide the students with the necessary tools they need to understand their emotions. I have used the feelings slider to have students show me how they are feeling in a hard moment. The Fill Your Bucket activity was their favorite. I loved using the props that came along, allowing the students to participate in the story. I think the visuals really helped the students understand more about how they treat others. I think students learned how to become better friends. \r\nI am so grateful for your donations.

Each of these items has played a vital role in transforming our classroom into a vibrant, art-focused learning space. The scissors have allowed our students to explore cutting techniques and create intricate paper crafts, enhancing their fine motor skills and creativity. The color pencils bring their drawings to life with vivid hues, encouraging self-expression and a deeper appreciation for color blending and design.\r\n\r\nThe erasers have been invaluable in helping students learn that mistakes are part of the creative process, empowering them to experiment without fear. And the Play-Doh has added a tactile dimension to learning, where students mold shapes and figures, developing spatial awareness and imaginative thinking. Thanks to your generosity, our students are more excited and engaged than ever before. They are having so much fun while learning, eagerly exploring new artistic techniques and sharing their creations with pride. Your support truly makes a lasting impact on their education and joy in the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1754600700695,"projectUrl":"project/creative-classroom-supplies-needed/9315650/","projectTitle":"Creative Classroom Supplies Needed","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Garcia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9771951_orig.jpg?crop=1448,1448,x0,y111&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747014479356","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9771951"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_41831","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":272,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":71,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":49,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":37,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"8.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":59.2,"schoolId":41831,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Venetucci Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Venetucci Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/widefield-school-district/venetucci-elementary-school/41831"}
