They were immediately drawn to the size and the improved setup (with substrate instead of reptile carpet that can be harmful for leopard geckos), and many commented on how comfortable and active Spyro appeared in his new environment. Students take turns caring for him, and the upgraded habitat has provided them with a meaningful opportunity to observe his behaviors and daily routines. This experience has deepened their understanding of responsibility and animal care, while also reinforcing key concepts from our science lessons on ecosystems and living organisms.\r\n\r\nThese new materials have transformed Spyro's habitat into a valuable hands-on learning tool in our classroom. Students are currently working on research projects about reptiles and their ecosystems, using Spyro's tank as a real-life example of how animals adapt to their surroundings. Their enthusiasm and curiosity have grown tremendously, and they are making clear connections between classroom learning and the world around them. Thank you for helping us create a more engaging and educational environment for all students.","fullyFundedDate":1757782706344,"projectUrl":"project/help-upgrade-spyros-home/9607909/","projectTitle":"Help Upgrade Spyro's Home","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Amy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9576111_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y168&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752182785179","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9576111"},{"teacherId":9921825,"projectId":9109790,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support in providing our classroom with new books. These texts have transformed reading into an exciting, collaborative experience.\r\nWe introduced book clubs, where students chose books and series that sparked their interest. Each week, they meet in their clubs to use the Somebody–Wanted–But–So–Then strategy to summarize, identify story elements, and discuss problems and conflicts. Along the way, we've practiced important skills like making inferences, strengthening comprehension, and using the RACE strategy to cite evidence and explain their thinking.\r\nWhat makes this so powerful is the joy students are experiencing. They are genuinely excited to read, share their favorite parts, and even compare themes across different books. Many are discovering a deeper love for literacy and asking if they can read ahead—something every teacher loves to hear!\r\nYour generosity made this possible.

We are so excited to share how these new resources have already made such a difference in our classroom. \r\n\r\nWhen the wobble stools, bouncy chair feet, and chair bands arrived, my students were so excited. I wish you could have seen their faces — pure excitement! Many of my students immediately asked if they could try the new seating. Students who often struggled to stay seated during lessons were able to focus longer because they could now move and wiggle without leaving their seats. It was such a powerful moment to see them engaged and comfortable at the same time. While obviously this does not solve all our challenges, it certainly helps in many small but impactful that we won't take for granted.\r\n\r\nWe are using the flexible seating every day during small group instruction and whole group instruction. Students now smoothly transition to small groups without needing to drag heavy chairs across the room, which keeps the learning momentum going. Those who need a little extra movement, especially some of my students with ADHD and sensory needs, are using the dynamic seating options to help regulate their bodies while staying focused on reading, writing, and math tasks. \r\n\r\nOur next step is applying the focus and stamina we're building in small groups to longer independent work sessions. Now that students are better able to self-regulate with the support of these tools, we working on giving more freedom and choice with seating to add to the students autonomy. I am confident that the flexible seating you provided will continue to play a huge role in their success. \r\n\r\nThank you for getting a glimpse into our classroom and for making such a meaningful impact.
