Thanks to your kindness, I have been able to purchase vital materials and resources focused on functional and life skills, which are essential for my students with special needs.\r\n\r\nThese resources have been invaluable in creating a more engaging and practical learning environment. The materials I've been able to purchase focus on real-world skills—everything from budgeting, cooking, and self-care, to social interaction and communication. These lessons are tailored to help my students build the skills they will need as they transition into adulthood and become more independent in their daily lives.\r\n\r\nThe impact of these life skills resources has been immediate and profound. My students are now more confident in applying their learning to practical situations, and I've seen a marked improvement in their self-esteem as they take ownership of tasks like meal planning, managing schedules, and even learning to advocate for themselves.\r\n\r\nOne of my students recently expressed how proud they felt after successfully following a recipe on their own for the first time, while another has made remarkable progress in budgeting their allowance, skills that will serve them well long after they leave my classroom.\r\n\r\nYour donation has truly made a difference, not just in their education, but in their lives. I am so incredibly grateful for your support, and I can assure you that your contribution has helped my students gain essential skills that will positively impact them for years to come.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generosity and for helping make my classroom a place of growth, empowerment, and real-world learning.","fullyFundedDate":1756913405432,"projectUrl":"project/help-us-learn-beyond-the-textbook/9619687/","projectTitle":"Help Us Learn Beyond the Textbook","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Flippin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2622904_orig.jpg?crop=667,667,x91,y264&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1639709681640","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/flippin"},{"teacherId":2622904,"projectId":9677680,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, my students with special needs have gained access to a variety of fidget tools that have made an incredible difference in their daily classroom experience. These fidget toys provide a vital outlet for sensory processing, enabling my students to better regulate their emotions and focus during lessons.\r\n\r\nFor many of my students, maintaining attention and managing feelings can be a significant challenge. With the addition of the fidget tools, they are able to engage in activities that help them self-soothe, release excess energy, and return their focus to the task at hand. This not only improves their behavior but also boosts their confidence and participation in class.\r\n\r\nSeveral students have shared how using the fidgets helps them \"calm down\" when they feel overwhelmed or anxious, while others have reported feeling \"more ready to listen\" when they have access to a tool that keeps their hands busy. These small, seemingly simple tools have created a noticeable shift in their engagement and overall academic performance.\r\n\r\nWith your help, these students now have the support they need to be successful, and I am excited to continue seeing how they thrive in an environment tailored to their individual needs. The impact of your donation extends far beyond the classroom; it has instilled a sense of independence and empowerment in each of these students.\r\n\r\nThank you for making this possible!","fullyFundedDate":1757731188042,"projectUrl":"project/fidgets-feelings-and-focus/9677680/","projectTitle":"Fidgets, Feelings, and Focus","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Flippin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2622904_orig.jpg?crop=667,667,x91,y264&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1639709681640","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/flippin"},{"teacherId":2622904,"projectId":9128842,"letterContent":"We would like to extend our deepest gratitude for your thoughtful donation of the ice chest, folding chairs, and wagon to our special needs classroom at City View MS/HS.
