The toys and supplies aren't just \"extra fun things\" in the classroom, they've completely changed how my students approach learning. When they can touch, move, build, and play, their faces light up with excitement, and suddenly abstract concepts start to make sense.\r\nFor some of my students, especially those who struggle to sit still or who need more support, these tools give them a way to engage that feels natural and joyful. They're not just memorizing, but they're experiencing. Whether it's using counters to solve a tough math problem, or blocks and games to practice teamwork and problem-solving, I see their confidence grow each time.\r\nWhat has impacted me most is watching their independence blossom. Instead of waiting for me to guide every step, they grab the materials, explore, and take ownership of their learning. It's made our classroom feel alive—full of curiosity, laughter, and those little \"aha!\" moments we all live for as teachers.","fullyFundedDate":1746785333952,"projectUrl":"project/hands-on-learning/9239767/","projectTitle":"Hands on learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Carleigh","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9897866_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1743291428166","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9897866"},{"teacherId":7251343,"projectId":8498099,"letterContent":"My students had so much fun learning about different science topics from Moby and Tim!
