The kids were so excited to see them, and they've quickly become the favorite spot in the whole room. It's exactly what we needed—a soft, comfy place where they can just \"hang out\" and take a break from all the busy preschool energy. Whether they're sitting together to look at a book or just chatting, it's been amazing to see them use the space to bond and relax.\r\nHaving this cozy corner has also been a huge help for those moments when someone feels a little overwhelmed. It's the perfect \"reset\" spot for them to sit back, take a deep breath, and calm down before jumping back into playtime. It's made our classroom feel so much more like a home, and the kids are loving every second of it. Thank you so much for giving them such a sweet place to recharge!","fullyFundedDate":1765215082701,"projectUrl":"project/a-comfortable-place-to-learn-relax-and/9647627/","projectTitle":"A Comfortable Place to Learn, Relax, and Grow Together","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Shearin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4683335_orig.jpg?crop=475,475,x0,y49&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1738376008206","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4683335"},{"teacherId":9818197,"projectId":9864861,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation of small anchor charts, classroom books, and a bookshelf for our classroom.

We have been using the anchor charts during our science lessons on landforms, our social studies lessons, and during interactive writing, and they have been incredibly helpful as visual supports for our students.\r\n\r\nThe books you donated have become a valuable part of our classroom library and are being used regularly for read-alouds and ELA lessons. The bookshelf has helped us organize and display these materials so students can easily access them.

The kidney table has quickly become a central part of our classroom, allowing my students to gather around and engage in group activities like arts and crafts, building blocks, and storytime. The children love using the table to practice writing and drawing pictures together. It is amazing to watch them work together, sharing ideas, colors, and tools. The table encourages teamwork and lets me sit right with them, offering support and guidance as needed.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new table, their excitement was palpable! They immediately wanted to sit around it, eager to explore the new space. They loved the idea of having a special spot for group activities, and many of them even started to use the table for pretend play, creating their own little scenarios with toys and materials. It was heartwarming to see them so engaged and excited, and it truly made our classroom feel more welcoming and organized.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we are excited to continue using the kidney table for our upcoming lessons. The table will be perfect for us to work together on sorting games, matching activities, and working on individual student goals. With this new resource, my students are becoming more confident in their learning and in working together, and we can't wait to see how the table will help foster even more creativity and collaboration in the future!","fullyFundedDate":1739222054867,"projectUrl":"project/a-kidney-table-for-exceptional-learning/9091991/","projectTitle":"A Kidney Table for Exceptional Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Shearin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4683335_orig.jpg?crop=475,475,x0,y49&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1738376008206","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4683335"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_25940","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":591,"numTeachers":47,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":64,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"12.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":73.0,"schoolId":25940,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Creekside Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Creekside Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/pitt-county-schools/creekside-elementary-school/25940"}
