We put your donation right to use this school year! \r\nTo teach students responsibility and accountability, I let students change seats each week in the room. They are responsible for keeping their spaces clean and earning points as a table! However, the favorite table of ALL students is the 'circle table' that has the stools YOU helped us purchase! They think this flexible seating option is the BEST! They all look forward to their week of sitting here! \r\nWe also have used the solar powered lamps at our desks! With these lights and the start string lights YOU helped us purchase, we are able to do our work with the overhead lights completely off! Students LOVE this, they think it's a treat! \r\nPlease see how well students are working in the photos attached! \r\nThank you again!","fullyFundedDate":1787179958399,"projectUrl":"project/help-welcome-this-years-firsties-into-a/10444803/","projectTitle":"Help Welcome This Year’s Firsties Into a Warm, Inviting Classroom!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sjogren","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9485365_orig.jpg?crop=2797,2797,x0,y466&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755097549408","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/sjogrenc"},{"teacherId":8457423,"projectId":10400565,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredible generosity in funding our project for new books, vibrant classroom decor, and a cozy new couch.

Watching their eyes light up as they walked in to discover the colorful updates and settled into the comfortable new reading nook was an unforgettable moment, and it has already sparked a fresh enthusiasm for reading and learning across our entire class community.\r\n\r\nYour support goes far beyond the physical items—you have created an environment where my students feel safe, inspired, and motivated to do their best work every day.

Your generosity truly makes a difference for my students each and every day.\r\nMany children come to school carrying big feelings, and sometimes they think they shouldn't show those emotions. One of my most important roles as their teacher is to help them understand their feelings and learn how to respond to them in healthy, appropriate ways.\r\nEach day, we begin with a \"Spot of Emotion\" book. These stories help us become \"emotion detectives\" and teach us strategies for managing different feelings. So far, we have explored empathy, worry, boredom, anger, peacefulness, and happiness. The little stuffed emotion \"dots\" are a fun and meaningful way for the children to see and connect with the feeling we are discussing.\r\nI also have a calming area in our classroom, where we've added the rainbow timer, weighted elephant, and sensory items. These tools have been especially helpful for students who are learning to manage their big feelings. They provide a safe space to reset, refocus, and return to learning.\r\nMy students and I are so very thankful for your donation and for the care you show our classroom community.","fullyFundedDate":1763825797765,"projectUrl":"project/growing-strong-inside-and-out/9595781/","projectTitle":"Growing Strong Inside and Out","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Schradle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8430682_orig.png?crop=500,500,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755206186877","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8430682"},{"teacherId":7392199,"projectId":9589310,"letterContent":"Thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting my kindergarten classroom this year!
