Each item has been used and loved by my students, and this would not have been possible without you!\r\n\r\nFirst and foremost, the class rug has been absolutely game-changing! When students walk into my classroom this is the first thing they comment on and are curious about. I have been able to connect our social studies learning to the rug when I teach students the continents in 4th grade, and we also use the rug to describe international journeys we took over the summer as well as to highlight where our family and friends live or are from.\r\n\r\nThe noise-cancelling headphones, clipboards, and cushions have made flexible seating not a dream, but a reality for my 4th and 5th grade students. Now, during group or independent work time, students are free to move around the classroom and sit in a comfortable position to complete their work. This has made students more engaged and excited to complete their assignments, which has made our classroom an even more productive learning environment.\r\n\r\nThank you again for helping this project come to life. Your generosity will leave a legacy of joy, excitement, and curiosity in my classroom for years to come!","fullyFundedDate":1777991396450,"projectUrl":"project/flexible-focused-in-fourth-grade/10039555/","projectTitle":"Flexible & Focused in Fourth Grade!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Richmond","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10304443_orig.png?crop=258,258,x5,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759889850009","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10304443"},{"teacherId":9866215,"projectId":9758331,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the adaptive materials. Having the TheraPro Functional Hand has been a great option to have accessible for a few of my students. Others have enjoyed using the spring loaded scissors when working on crafts! Our pre school program has enjoyed having the weighted cat to provide input when they're seated. I've also appreciated having the paper cutter, it has made preparing crafts much easier and quicker!\r\n\r\nThank you for your generosity.

With the new furniture, we are able to have more small group instructions so are students are receiving more 1:1 support during instruction time. The kidney table has also provide a chance for an adult to connect more with the students because we are able to break out into smaller groups. We have completely changed the layout of our classroom with the new table and our classroom provides more of a home-like and calming environment. The willingness to do work has increased since last year as well. The sensory swing has been a fan favorite. Many of my students love to just hang out in the sensory swing during break time. I have one student who uses this sensory swing to regulate her emotions. She has gone from needing an adult to help her to requesting the swing and regulated herself more independently. \r\n\r\nThank you from the bottom of our hearts for your donations that contributes to our sensory-friendly and cozy new classroom environment.","fullyFundedDate":1755731986251,"projectUrl":"project/help-us-learn-and-grow-with-new-furnitur/9538067/","projectTitle":"Help Us Learn and Grow With New Furniture!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. DePaolo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9379612_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754361765957","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9379612"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_5302","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":321,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":49,"percentAsian":31,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":43,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.4,"schoolId":5302,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Solomon Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Solomon Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/chicago-public-school-district-299/solomon-elementary-school/5302"}
