My kindergarten students were absolutely thrilled when they first saw it. Their faces lit up with excitement as they eagerly talked about which colorful smiley face they wanted to sit on. It was such a special moment to see their happiness and enthusiasm as they gathered on their new rug for the very first time. Your kindness has given each of my little learners a special place to call their own in our classroom.\r\nOur new rug has quickly become an important part of our daily learning. It is where we come together for our phonics lessons, reading activities, math instruction, classroom discussions, and stories. Beyond academics, it is also a place where my students practice kindness, patience, flexibility, and friendship. Watching them happily choose their spots, take turns, and encourage one another has been especially rewarding.\r\nAs we continue through the school year, this rug will be the gathering place for so many exciting learning milestones. My students are already making wonderful progress in learning to read, and I look forward to watching their confidence and skills continue to grow. Thank you for helping create a welcoming, cheerful, and comfortable learning environment where my students can feel a sense of belonging. Your generosity is making a meaningful difference in our classroom, and we are truly grateful!","fullyFundedDate":1793365612832,"projectUrl":"project/a-special-spot-for-every-little-learner/10460466/","projectTitle":"A Special Spot for Every Little Learner","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Visoso","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4319934_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1504311828481","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4319934"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_33795","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":653,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":94,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"22.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":79.2,"schoolId":33795,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Alice Birney Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Alice Birney Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/colton-joint-unified-school-district/alice-birney-elementary-school/33795"}
