The fan has been incredibly helpful at this time of year when the air conditioners are turned off, and the heat is high. The fan helps circulate the cool air from the window into the room when we need it. \r\n\r\nThe shelves have been incredibly helpful at keeping students belongings stored safely off the floor and out of the way, especially at this time of year when it is winter and students have bulky jackets in addition to their backpacks and various belongings. \r\n\r\nThe ballet barres are also an excellent resource to have now that students are studying ballet for our current unit. It is helpful to teach students how to use them properly, so when they attend ballet classes outside of school they are prepared for success. \r\n\r\nThe students have been very grateful for the various resources from this project and are excited to continue using them for this school year, as well as many school years to come. Once again thank you so much for supporting this project and for enhancing our classroom space in positive ways.","fullyFundedDate":1758943591885,"projectUrl":"project/ballet-barres-shelves-and-fans-oh-my/9714774/","projectTitle":"Ballet Barres, Shelves, and Fans Oh My!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fox","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9444248_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1734883469107","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9444248"},{"teacherId":4730222,"projectId":9172951,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the generous gift of headphones to my classroom.

Since they do not have to share the headphones anymore I have noticed that the students are able to do more work, and at a faster speed.

My students are grateful for the opportunity to earn prizes and understand that by demonstrating skills of a model student, they can earn rewards. \r\n\r\nThe students were very excited when I first showed them the options that they have to earn prizes. They appreciate that there are many choices, so there is always something interesting available to each student that they can work toward. This helps give students agency and responsibility in seeing the direct impact of their positive behavior during learning. \r\n\r\nWe look forward to utilizing these rewards throughout the year, and our students are so thankful for your generosity in the opportunity to have access to these materials. Even the smallest rewards, have such a large impact on students, as the students feel recognized and successful when they are able to earn a reward.
