Your donation has allowed us to acquire truly transformative resources that are already making a profound difference in our classrooms.\r\n\r\nThe excitement that these new materials have sparked is immeasurable. I wish you could have seen the students' faces when they walked into my room and saw everything for the first time! Their reactions were priceless—ranging from shock at the sight of the new materials, to awe at the quality, and pure excitement to begin using them.\r\n\r\nThese resources are not just sitting on a shelf; they are fully integrated into our daily learning, and my students and I are absolutely loving them! Just last week, our second graders used the new materials to bring their SEARCH lesson to life. We used the \"Three Little Piggies\" game as a hands-on activity, and the engagement was incredible. They are already asking when we can play again! This is exactly the kind of enthusiastic, deep learning your contribution has made possible.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in our students and investing in their future. Your generosity has enriched their learning experience and created memorable moments they will carry with them.","fullyFundedDate":1756686675381,"projectUrl":"project/gifted-games-teacher-appreciation-week/9310427/","projectTitle":"Gifted Games - Teacher Appreciation Week","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Adkisson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9878865_orig.jpg?crop=1512,1512,x0,y307&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1734618321233","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsadkissonlcps"},{"teacherId":9932601,"projectId":9134129,"letterContent":"Thanks to your help, we have been able to successfully install an impactful calm down for our AUT students. The students have been able to enjoy a safe calming space where they can go whenever they are stimulated. Since installing the calm down corner, I have witnessed our students request to use it, and immediately go to their favorite feature that helps distract them from their big emotion. This in turn has made the class room calmer, and learning/teaching not only possible, but active. \r\n Some students prefer the solitude of the tent, and some of them prefer the sensory textiles. However, they ALL enjoy some or everything, and that is all thanks to you!","fullyFundedDate":1742923552781,"projectUrl":"project/k-2-autism-classroom-sensory-corner/9134129/","projectTitle":"K-2 Autism Classroom Sensory Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. C Anthony","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9932601"},{"teacherId":9878865,"projectId":9013296,"letterContent":"I have been working diligently at my school to build a strong gifted library of games for the students at Sugarland Elementary.
