For example, the privacy folders have been such a hit—they know they are free to use them whenever they need, and many students choose one during independent work so they can focus better. We also read the book together, and they absolutely loved it—they were very engaged with the story from beginning to end. Another favorite has been the bell, which has helped us tremendously. It allows me to grab their attention quickly so we can save time, listen to instructions, and continue our learning without interruptions.\r\n\r\nI truly appreciate your generosity and good heart.
