Some of the students assisted in the building of the stool, which was really impactful. The students have been doing a great job at taking turns sitting on the stool, and all of them have raved about how comfortable it is. I have noticed a big difference in the way they hold their basses, which is the best part.\r\n My next steps for this project is to get 3 more of the stools so all my students can have access at the same time. I'd also like to find an easier way to transport them so we will be able to bring the stools to festivals we attend.\r\n Again, I can't thank you enough for your generosity and for believing in equity and access for all, regardless of size.","fullyFundedDate":1750256538838,"projectUrl":"project/tall-or-small-proper-bass-posture-for-a/9359730/","projectTitle":"Tall or Small, Proper Bass Posture for All!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Edmondson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8127426_orig.jpg?crop=750,750,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747324659441","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8127426"},{"teacherId":4658633,"projectId":9092071,"letterContent":"I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous donation to our classroom. Thanks to your kindness, my 8th grade students have been absolutely thrilled to receive an incredible collection of classroom supplies—folders, markers, crayons, printer paper, and more—that have already made a meaningful impact on their learning experience.\r\n\r\nThese resources have empowered my students to become what we now lovingly call artistic historians. Whether they are creating one-pager reports, designing vibrant American Revolution propaganda posters, or engaging in colorful note-taking strategies, my students are having a great time using their supplies to enrich and express their historical learning through colorful and creative outlets. The materials have allowed them to engage with content in a way that truly resonates with their learning styles—especially for those who are visual learners with imaginative minds.\r\n\r\nThe added ability to organize their work with folders and creatively bring their ideas to life using markers, crayons, and vivid hand-drawn elements has sparked both excitement and pride in their learning. I've noticed more engagement, deeper understanding, and a greater willingness to dive into historical topics when students can demonstrate their knowledge through media that fits their unique strengths.\r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting my artistic historians.
