My students are unique in so many ways, and one of the things I admire most about them is the way they each see and experience the world differently. For many of my students, sitting still for long periods can be a real challenge, and that often impacts their ability to focus and fully engage in lessons. Thanks to your kindness, these wiggle seats will provide them with an outlet for their energy while allowing them to better concentrate and participate in learning. By giving my students this tool, you are helping them access the curriculum in a way that works best for their individual needs, and that is such a gift. Your support ensures that every child feels seen, supported, and given the chance to succeed. Thank you for believing in them and for helping create a classroom where every student has the opportunity to thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1654883389262,"projectUrl":"project/flexible-seating-focused-mind/6328659/","projectTitle":"Flexible Seating = Focused Mind","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Antoine","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5891735_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1631157438685","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/fahyolah-antoine"},{"teacherId":9557946,"projectId":9127283,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of my DonorsChoose project!

Even the students in my current class are obsessed with the pin art!\r\n\r\nNext school year, I'm looking forward to hopefully working more intensively with a small group of students with autism and significant learning needs. While my exact role is still being finalized, I'm preparing for the opportunity to focus on helping students build communication skills, grow academically, and feel supported in their individual needs. The materials you helped fund—like sensory tools, fine motor resources, and hands-on learning games—will be essential in creating a calm, engaging, and responsive classroom environment. These tools will allow me to personalize instruction and help each student make meaningful progress while feeling safe, capable, and understood.\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in my students' growth.
