My students were super excited to open the items you helped to bring to our classroom. They immediately noticed the boxes and were curious not only to open them but know who had gifted us such special gifts. \r\nThe materials are helping my students to become more independent, to work on their motor skills and to explore materials they had never had access to. The Tri-mirror, for example, allows my students to see not only the projects they are building but to see themselves forming these projects. This creates a sense of autonomy and pride. The ligt table is a magical station for my students; They love making shapes and different drawings and see how it becomes alive through the use of light. The Montessory trays are also a great source of independence and it helps them to develop strong motor skills and sense of direction.\r\nEvery morning when I open the doors and put the light on in my classroom, I love to see the materials that with this donation have made our classroom a little bit more magical. I Can't wait to see how my students continue to learn and grow with the use of these materials.
