My students have truly enjoyed being able to work together on projects using the new flower tables and chairs. The table setup has made a noticeable difference in how students interact with one another, conversations feel more natural, students are more willing to share ideas, and group work feels purposeful rather than forced.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the new furniture, they were genuinely excited. Several immediately commented on how comfortable the chairs were and how much they liked sitting at the flower tables. That excitement carried straight into our lessons. Students were eager to sit down, get started, and work together.\r\n\r\nI have used the tables daily for small-group instruction, collaborative projects, and especially for vocabulary games. Having students gathered around the tables has made vocabulary practice more engaging and interactive. Whether we are playing review games, sorting words, or discussing meanings, students are more focused and actively participating.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, these tables and chairs will continue to support collaborative lessons, discussion-based activities, and technology-integrated projects. Because of these resources, my students are more comfortable working together, more confident sharing their thinking, and more engaged in their learning. Thank you for helping create a classroom environment where collaboration and learning truly thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1753875065840,"projectUrl":"project/table-talk-tech-inspiring-multimedia/9404446/","projectTitle":"Table Talk & Tech: Inspiring Multimedia Makers","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Egan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1587094_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y331&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726321223526","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1587094"},{"teacherId":1587094,"projectId":9580918,"letterContent":"My students have absolutely loved using the new wobble stools! They've quickly become one of the most valued pieces of flexible seating in our classroom. The stools help students stay focused while giving them the freedom to move during lessons. They use them daily during small group work and collaborative projects, and I often hear, \"Can I use a wobble stool today?\" It's wonderful to see them so engaged and comfortable while learning.\r\n\r\nThe addition of A Long Walk to Water has also made a lasting impact. Having a copy of the novel in their hands during our read-alouds helped them connect more deeply with the story. We all gasped when Salva lost his uncle and cried with joy when the two main characters met at the end, it was such a powerful moment. To make our reading even more interactive, I created a \"Fear Factor\" challenge where students worked together to answer comprehension questions about the book.\r\n\r\nThese resources have truly transformed our classroom into a more flexible, collaborative, and emotionally connected space. Thank you for supporting my students and helping them learn in ways that inspire empathy, curiosity, and teamwork every day.","fullyFundedDate":1755710548709,"projectUrl":"project/from-page-to-possibility-flexible-seati/9580918/","projectTitle":"From Page to Possibility: Flexible Seating and Novel Study","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Egan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1587094_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y331&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726321223526","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1587094"},{"teacherId":9471066,"projectId":9357305,"letterContent":"Thanks to your support! Our school clothing closet is now stocked with leggings that are available when students need them. We've already been able to provide a few pairs to students who didn't have another clothing option. The biggest impact is knowing these leggings are there whenever a student may need them. \r\n\r\nHaving these basics on hand means students don't have to worry about missing out on class or activities because of clothing concerns. Even though there are students who haven't needed them yet, they're glad to know there are reliable options available. \r\n\r\nThank you again for helping us create an environment where students can focus on learning instead of clothing challenges.","fullyFundedDate":1748271862972,"projectUrl":"project/comfort-confidence-leggings-for-girls/9357305/","projectTitle":"Comfort & Confidence: Leggings for Girls in Need","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Motuz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9471066_orig.jpg?crop=907,907,x967,y1028&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1715267898543","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/katmotuz"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_3537","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":474,"numTeachers":43,"percentFrplEligible":75,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":68,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"11.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":69.0,"schoolId":3537,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Brevard Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Brevard Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/transylvania-county-school-district/brevard-middle-school/3537"}
