Being able to move and be comfortable really helps focus and productivity, not to mention, it's more fun! Thanks to you, we also talked about giving to others when you can. We discussed how having these new, colorful, comfortable seats has improved our school day, and how we would not have them if it weren't for your generosity.","fullyFundedDate":1750868572269,"projectUrl":"project/new-seating-for-mrs-justices-class/9420213/","projectTitle":"New Seating for Mrs. Justice's Class","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Justice","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10058478_orig.png?crop=458,458,x0,y50&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750194648975","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10058478"},{"teacherId":10058478,"projectId":9421627,"letterContent":"Your generosity has improved the morale, problem-solving, and creativity in our classroom. Having different games, blocks, etc. for students to use in the morning has encouraged them to learn new skills and interact with other students. Many of the students have been playing with different friends everyday that I know they wouldn't have otherwise. They've also worked together to learn how to play or use the materials. Several of the games require them to read and understand the rules and then get along with others while playing. All of these are important life skills!
