It was definitely their favorite activity of the year. This parachute helps our students with team building teamwork and physical gross motor skills. \r\n\r\nOur team spent time creating and practicing expectations for our students to be successful and most importantly safe. We tried different ways to move the parachute together. We played with movement to Star Wars for \"May the 4th\" celebration that our students loved, and then we ended the year with some basketball challenge with the parachutes. We look forward to using it next year and beyond and adding more activities with the circle spots also!","fullyFundedDate":1768698535081,"projectUrl":"project/little-hands-big-rhythm-percussion-t/10011431/","projectTitle":"Little Hands, Big Rhythm: Percussion & Tone Bells","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. D.","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2296724_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y162&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1619922797074","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/musicwithdressler"},{"teacherId":3134511,"projectId":10051106,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to my project. My students, grades K through 5th, have been hard at work developing their phonics skills through the use of the tools you have provided. Thanks to you, my students LOVE coming to our Intervention group time. For the littlest learners, their favorite part is showing how much they have learned by manipulating the magnetic letters to spell words. Even better is when they substitute one sound for another to build a brand new word! The bigger kids love using the dry erase materials and different colored markers to write pseudowords, mark the vowels, and use what they have learned to identify different types of syllables in order to decode multisyllabic words correctly! Our Intervention time is busy and productive, and my students truly have a GREAT time while they are so hard at work. I have seen their skill levels grow and change, and so have they.

One of the biggest benefits is that many of the games and materials can be reprinted and reused, allowing us to continue learning and growing long into the future.\r\n\r\nWith these resources, we have been able to integrate art into multiple subject areas. Students are now combining creativity with academics—enhancing their writing pieces with visual elements, exploring math concepts in hands-on ways, and even designing a motivational sign to encourage our fifth grade students during testing. These experiences make learning more meaningful and help students take pride in their work.\r\n\r\nYour support has created opportunities that go far beyond basic instruction.

Because of your generosity, we were able to purchase a variety of educational games that have already made a powerful impact on our students' learning and excitement.\r\n\r\nWhen the games arrived, the students could hardly believe they were truly ours to keep—not just something borrowed for a short time. That sense of ownership has made a meaningful difference. They take pride in caring for the materials and are eager to use them every single day.\r\n\r\nThese games have quickly become an important part of our learning routine. Students are building essential math skills through play, including addition, subtraction, telling time, understanding place value, and counting coins. What makes this even more special is how engaged and motivated they are—learning feels fun, collaborative, and meaningful.\r\n\r\nOne of the biggest successes has been the dice poppers. They completely solved what we used to call \"The Case of the Flying Dice!\" Little hands sometimes struggled with rolling dice, which could be frustrating and distracting. Now, with the poppers, every student can participate easily and independently, allowing us to focus more on learning and less on managing materials.\r\n\r\nYour kindness and generosity have truly made a difference in our classroom. Experiences like these remind me that I am not doing this important work alone, and that there are caring individuals like you who believe in supporting students and their education.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in our classroom and in our students' future.

The students are able to use the space as their own and utilize various coping strategies while doing so. The kiddos are getting so creative with their play with the new tools they have. For example, they pretend the kinetic sand bin is a city where people live and build tunnels. \r\n\r\nThey're using the weighted lap blankets and snacks to help regulate in moments of upset, and the visual timers are working wonders to help the transition between breaks and activities. \r\n\r\nThe new prizes in my prize bin are an absolute hit, too!

The students were most fascinated by the stapleless staplers, which they now use to assemble their math packets with wide-eyed curiosity. There was also a collective sigh of relief when they saw the 300-pack of pre-sharpened pencils—knowing they are always prepared to learn has removed a major daily stressor.\r\n\r\nWhat's Next?\r\nNext week, we are diving into multiplication and division fluency.

One moment that stood out was seeing typically quiet students confidently share their thinking—something that wouldn't have happened without these tools to support their learning style.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the excitement was immediate and genuine. Students were eager to explore, asking questions and brainstorming how we could use everything.
