When the students arrived and saw the new table and chairs, they immediately began utilizing them for a play dough and writing station as well as teacher table activities. The new table gave us the extra space we needed right away for small-group crafts, snack time, and table activities. The sensory \"bop\" light was also a favorite, at first in our temporary cardboard house and now in the sensory tent. The sensory tent was also an immediate hit! They love the dark spacious interior and I loved how easy it was to set up. Out of the box and \"pop\" the center down into place. The students scrambled in right away, easily fitting 3 of them with space to spare. It provides a wonderful quiet retreat and space for imaginative play.\r\nThese additions have made our classroom so much more comfortable and organized. Having proper seating lets us focus on fun learning games in small groups, while the sensory tent gives students a safe place to take a break when they need it. Next, we will use our new table for a hands-on art and sorting project, while using the tent to help students practice taking quiet breaks on their own.

When my students saw the new additions to centers, teacher table activities and outdoor sensory tables, their faces lit up with excitement. The kinetic sand and marble run were instant hits. The soft sand gave my students a quiet, comforting way to relax their bodies and focus through touch, while the colorful marble run gave them an exciting, hands-on way to explore cause-and-effect. It was incredible to see my students engaging in parallel and cooperative play. \r\nThese multi-sensory tools are helping my students learn in ways that fit their unique needs. The counting garage and color train turn hands-on play into real skill-building, making simple math and color ideas easy to touch and understand. Next, we will use the cars and trains in a guided sensory play setup, where students can drive them along colorful rug paths to practice visual matching, turn-taking, and basic counting. All these wonderful additions to the classroom have increased engagement and exploration, supported sensory needs and provided hands-on learning opportunities. Your support has given my little learners the comforting, interactive tools they need to feel calm, happy, and excited to learn every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1778297315042,"projectUrl":"project/learning-through-the-power-of-play/10256770/","projectTitle":"Learning Through the Power of Play!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wack","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5312921_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1667088930764","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5312921"},{"teacherId":1853050,"projectId":10390744,"letterContent":"We would like to extend a big mahalo to the Cavens Ohana and The Roberts Foundation for supporting our classroom.
