Because of your generosity, students have made meaningful progress in learning letter sounds, phonemes, and digraphs through the use of engaging \"eye words\" cards.\r\n\r\nThese visual tools have helped make abstract letter–sound connections more concrete for young learners. By consistently using the eye words cards during daily instruction, students are able to visually focus on letters and letter combinations while clearly hearing and practicing their corresponding sounds. As a result, all students have successfully learned their individual letter sounds and are beginning to confidently identify and use digraphs in words.\r\n\r\nThis approach has increased student engagement, strengthened phonemic awareness, and supported a range of learning styles. Most importantly, students are showing greater confidence as early readers and writers, applying their knowledge of sounds and patterns during independent and guided activities.\r\n\r\nYour support has had a direct and lasting impact on our students' literacy growth.

By using hands-on resources—such as tactile letters, sensory trays, and fine-motor manipulatives—children can see, touch, and feel how letters are formed, making learning more accessible and developmentally appropriate. These materials support diverse learning styles, strengthen fine motor skills, and boost confidence as students practice writing in a playful, meaningful way. Ultimately, this project helps set young learners up for long-term success in literacy.\r\n\r\nSince implementing these materials, students are writing more independently and confidently. Many are now \"writing the room,\" using words they see throughout the classroom to guide their writing and make meaningful connections to print in their environment. Letter formation practice with sand trays has been especially impactful for students who were experiencing letter reversals, helping them slow down, build muscle memory, and form letters correctly. Overall, these tools have increased engagement, confidence, and early writing success for all learners.","fullyFundedDate":1760799284847,"projectUrl":"project/no-more-tears-multisensory-tools-are-he/9737887/","projectTitle":"No More Tears- Multisensory Tools Are Here!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hawkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9788799_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1758383938852","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9788799"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_55353","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":871,"numTeachers":71,"percentFrplEligible":85,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":40,"percentWhite":28,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":18,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":10,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":50.4,"schoolId":55353,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Chimney Lakes Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Chimney Lakes Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/duval-county-public-schools/chimney-lakes-elementary-school/55353"}
