Our students have been able to make great use of the new resources. We were able to use flexible seating in the classroom to be able to do more small group activities. It has helped the class get out of their seats and get moving around the room while learning at the same time. \r\n\r\nOne of the projects that we recently did was an animal research project. The students had to do choose a animal of their choice, do their own research on it reading a book about it and then using an online resource to find out more about it. After the students borrowed a book from the library, they were able to choose whether to read it at their desk or sit in one of the flexible seating options. \r\n\r\nThe students were so excited to have bean bags in the classroom in the reading corner to use. It gave the students a sense of independence while working on their project. They had the power to choose a different way of learning for what worked best for them.","fullyFundedDate":1740423483968,"projectUrl":"project/moving-and-learning/9127605/","projectTitle":"Moving and Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9927045"},{"teacherId":9373816,"projectId":8890712,"letterContent":"Thank you for all of the new materials that you donated to my speech classroom! We have more opportunities to tell stories, use different games and materials to produce our speech sounds, using the buzzers to encourage socialization and participation in the speech room, as well as the whiteboard to draw or write things on the fly. My students are utilizing all of the stories and cannot wait to continue the series of \"The Pigeon Goes...\" or \"Llama Llama\". \r\n\r\nIn speech, I always want to read new stories to my students and try out new activities to engage their vocabulary, storytelling abilities, and story element knowledge. Receiving all of these new books and materials will help me to organize the books and activities together and to reuse these next school year and years to come. As a fairly new speech pathologist, I am always looking for new ideas and methods to use to treat students with language delays or speech sound disorders. All of these materials will help me to come up with new ideas and impact the futures of these children.","fullyFundedDate":1729435436015,"projectUrl":"project/we-love-speech-therapy/8890712/","projectTitle":"We Love Speech Therapy!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Erin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9373816"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_50865","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":314,"numTeachers":23,"percentFrplEligible":13,"percentAsian":47,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":4,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":91.4,"schoolId":50865,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Nu'uanu Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Nu'uanu Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/hawaii/honolulu-school-district/nuuanu-elementary-school/50865"}
