We are using the bean bag, flower floor pillows, round rug, and plush seating to create a calm reading and reflection area where students can read independently, work in small groups, or take a quiet moment to reset. The storage cart and wicker baskets have helped us stay organized by giving students easy access to books, supplies, and materials, which has increased their independence and responsibility in the classroom.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the materials, their faces lit up with excitement. They immediately noticed how inviting the space felt and couldn't wait to use it. Several students shared that the new seating helps them feel more relaxed and focused, especially during reading time. It has made our classroom feel more like a community where everyone feels comfortable and included.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, students will continue using this space during reading workshops, small-group instruction, and social-emotional learning activities. The flexible seating and organized materials allow students to choose learning environments that best meet their needs, helping them stay engaged and motivated. Your generosity has made a lasting impact on how my students learn, collaborate, and feel in our classroom—thank you for helping create a space where they can thrive. 💚","fullyFundedDate":1761917257008,"projectUrl":"project/calming-corner/9539998/","projectTitle":"Calming Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Friday","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10079359_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752523476052","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/eymoni-friday"},{"teacherId":10079359,"projectId":9462875,"letterContent":"When our new supplies arrived, my 8th graders were thrilled! The automatic pencil sharpener has been a game changer — no more interruptions or dull pencils during writing time. The fabric storage cubes helped us organize our novels, journals, and writing supplies, making our classroom feel calm and ready for learning. The dry erase markers have been especially useful during our grammar and writing workshops, where students love coming up to the board to revise sentences or share ideas.\r\n\r\nOne memorable moment was during our peer editing day. Each group used the new markers on mini whiteboards to brainstorm stronger thesis statements and revise introductions together. The room was buzzing with discussion and creativity! The snacks and hand sanitizer have also been a big help — keeping everyone energized, focused, and healthy during our longer writing sessions.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students have a cleaner, more organized, and engaging space to think, write, and share. Our next step is diving into our personal narrative unit, where students will use the whiteboards for outlining and peer feedback before publishing their final drafts. These resources have made a real difference in how my students approach writing — thank you for helping our classroom grow!","fullyFundedDate":1753932798191,"projectUrl":"project/materials-for-success/9462875/","projectTitle":"Materials for Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Friday","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10079359_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752523476052","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/eymoni-friday"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_127546","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1050,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":21,"percentWhite":7,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":68,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":57.1,"schoolId":127546,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Dr Don P Woolley Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Dr Don P Woolley Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/mesquite-independent-school-district/woolley-middle-school/127546"}
