Thanks to you, our learning environment has undergone a complete transformation in the best possible way.\r\n\r\nOur first week of school was a cozy and welcoming experience in our bright, cheerful classroom. The addition of floor cushions, new books, sticky chart paper, and fun indoor recess games made our space feel extra special, setting the tone for a great start to third grade. The doorbell attention-getter was an instant favorite among students; it's amazing how a simple chime can create a calm, focused shift in our day. It has already made a big difference in helping us transition smoothly and stay engaged throughout our routines.\r\n\r\nWe've already used the sticky note chart paper during our morning meetings. Students love coming up to contribute their thinking on these bright, visual anchors that now line our walls. The floor cushions have turned our reading corner into a cozy, inviting space that has students genuinely excited to read around the room. \r\n\r\nThe class set of headphones has been a game-changer during independent learning, especially for low-income students who could not afford to bring in school supplies. Now, students can access differentiated reading and math programs without distraction. Whether they're listening to a story or working through a lesson, they stay focused and fully engaged.\r\n\r\nThe stacking stools and organization products have made our space more flexible and efficient, giving students freedom to move, collaborate, and take ownership of their materials.\r\n\r\nDuring indoor recess, the new games have become a favorite. Students are learning cooperation, sportsmanship, and problem-solving—all while having fun and staying active.\r\n\r\nAs we move into the next part of the school year, we'll be using these materials during our narrative writing unit, small group book clubs, and social studies lessons. These resources are helping us build a learning community where students feel comfortable, confident, and cared for—and that's because of you.\r\n\r\nThank you for making our classroom a place where students are excited to learn every single day. You've made a lasting impact, and we are so grateful!","fullyFundedDate":1748136416802,"projectUrl":"project/transitioning-from-rti-to-3rd-grade-and/9321880/","projectTitle":"Transitioning from RTI to 3rd grade and need YOUR help!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cusick","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9547019_orig.jpg?crop=640,640,x0,y32&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746812975143","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9547019"},{"teacherId":9547019,"projectId":8924636,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the engaging, alphabet resources! It has truly transformed kindergarten groups as we have integrated many more opportunities for hands on learning and play-based learning. The kids have loved using these resources and are learning at a faster paced because of it! \r\n\r\nStudents have enjoyed matching uppercase and lowercase alphabet letters with the break-apart letter llamas and popsicles. They have used their fine motor skills and alphabet knowledge to string letter beads onto pipe cleaners. They have stamped letters into playdough, traced sandpaper letters for a tactile experience, manipulated uppercase and lowercase magnet letters and played many rounds of alphabet bingo! \r\n\r\nI wanted to personally thank you as well for the bouncy bands and the wobble chair attachments. This has been an incredible resource for all students in grades K-4th. With today's curriculum rigor and expectations placed on students, it is very hard to sit still and pay attention. These chair adaptations have provided a quiet way to get wiggles and excess energy out so students can focus and have better academic achievements. \r\n\r\nYour generosity has proved extremely beneficial for young learners by promoting alphabet knowledge and recognition while having fun.
