When the project was funded, I explained to the students that we would be receiving new yoga balls, a new rug, a new chromebook cart, and new dustpans. They were so excited they started to cheer! \r\n\r\nSince the arrival of our items, the class has become independent with removing and replacing their chromebooks from/to the cart. This is a tremendous time saver for me. In order to keep our new rug clean, the students decided to bring slippers to school. When the weather is rainy, muddy, or snowy, they change into their slippers while working in the classroom. The yoga balls have been a big hit at my reading table and a great incentive to work hard. Lastly, our \"floor helpers\" now have something to use when picking up at the end of the day. \r\n\r\nThank you for making this all possible and creating a sense of community within our room.","fullyFundedDate":1760699695414,"projectUrl":"project/fresh-start/9627569/","projectTitle":"Fresh Start","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Kline","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8556793_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1659405655581","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/annakline"},{"teacherId":9737359,"projectId":8750947,"letterContent":"When the recess cart and classroom stools arrived we were all so excited! \r\n\r\nFor quite some time the children needed to carry our playground toys outside.

Now that we have a cart to keep everything organized, the children are able to swap toys easily throughout their recess time without forgetting them outside. I have even established a classroom job for a child to be responsible for pushing the cart each week. The children absolutely love taking turn to do this job! \r\n\r\nThe stools have allowed the children to sit at tables in the classroom without having to drag along the chair from their desks.
