We also have glow in the dark tennis balls to use to increase the fun factor when we use the black lights in math or word study.

I also appreciate that they are sturdy enough for an adult to sit on and that they can be easily moved around the room. \r\n\r\nStudents are so excited to have these additional seating options which allows them choice and provides them with some ownership within the room.

My students were absolutely thrilled when the packages arrived!\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, we don't always get as much time as we'd like to work on Tinkercad, but the students truly love every single minute they get to spend designing. Before your gift arrived, we had actually run out of filament, and our 3D printer was sitting idle. It was heartbreaking to see their designs ready to go with no way to bring them to life. Your donation has changed that. The kids absolutely love seeing their designs come to life, layer by layer.\r\n\r\nBeyond the immediate excitement of seeing their creations, this resource is a vital investment in their futures. While they aren't mastering these complex skills just yet, they are consistently practicing the fundamentals of spatial reasoning, critical thinking, and a \"maker\" mindset. By giving them the chance to practice now, you are helping them build the hands-on experience and technical confidence they will need to eventually pursue high-demand careers in STEM fields.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students and for providing the \"fuel\" we needed to keep our classroom's innovation moving forward.","fullyFundedDate":1762458483674,"projectUrl":"project/printing-possibilities-filament-for-fut/9817100/","projectTitle":"Printing Possibilities: Filament for Future Innovators","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Saugstad","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10308631"},{"teacherId":973269,"projectId":9661924,"letterContent":"The students have loved the additional lighting options for our classroom! Each morning, we randomly draw 5 \"lucky ducks\" who get to choose a light option to have at their seat. They have to stay focused, and they can't play with the light. Students have commented that they enjoy the way the classroom looks, and they like having the choice on which lighting option they use. They are also working to be responsible by making sure it is plugged in at night so it can be enjoyed again the next day. \r\n\r\nThe large dartboards have increased participation. Students are working for a chance to earn a throw, and sometimes it is just for the bragging rights of having the best throw. Sometimes we create groups and also practice our adding skills as we add the points earned from each throw for each group to find which group had a higher score.

If someone is feeling strong emotions, they can take a moment and use the items in the bin to help regulate their emotions.
