The items that were ordered have become so popular with my students. Students are using the pop beads to explore making their own jewelry and practicing pattern making. We will be using the markers to draw patterns in the new year and trying to replicate them with our beads. They have been great for developing their fine motor skills as well. Our sparkly wands are a great way to get students engaged in our calendar and literacy activities as pointers and reading guides. \r\n\r\nThe guitar is a cherished new addition to our class. Students are practicing signing their names to have a turn playing it. It is always a delight to see them coming together with other instruments to just jam with each other. I'm so thankful for this because it has also given my students a new way to engage with their classmates, form friendships, and build confidence in their ability to play their own music their own way.","fullyFundedDate":1758741570558,"projectUrl":"project/learning-through-play-and-space-to-put-i/9653298/","projectTitle":"Learning Through Play and Space to Put it Away","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lauren","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5648916_orig.jpg?crop=1261,1261,x0,y92&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1566520473499","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5648916"},{"teacherId":6528247,"projectId":9700514,"letterContent":"Thank you again for your beautiful donation towards our new dollhouse and all the furniture and dolls to go with it. It is a favorite area in our classroom for the children to explore. Everyone has had a wonderful time creating stories and interacting with each other. It has been such a treat to watch the children make up stories and pretend to be different characters every time they play. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching students who typically have a hard time interacting with peers and they have found a common space to play in. As I had also hoped, this dollhouse has opened new doors for communication and language from all the children. This has been my favorite part as I am hearing more words form several students who otherwise are quiet during their school day. Theis dollhouse had brought new magic to our classroom.\r\n\r\nAgain, thank you.","fullyFundedDate":1758145913813,"projectUrl":"project/one-dollhouse-a-creative-imagination/9700514/","projectTitle":"One Dollhouse & a Creative Imagination","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Annie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6528247_orig.jpg?crop=365,365,x501,y17&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1599186302460","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6528247"},{"teacherId":6528247,"projectId":9217512,"letterContent":"I wish I could have captured the joy and awe of my students as they opened their gifts.

Your donation made this possible. \r\n\r\nThis photo project has been ongoing throughout our year.

I cannot wait to see where their imaginations, and their cameras, take them the next few months.
