  • Sensory Wonderland: Empowering Exceptional Students Through Creative Exploration

    Funded Dec 16, 2024

    I am deeply grateful for your generous support of our Sensory Wonderland: Empowering Exceptional Students Through Creative Exploration project. Thanks to your kindness and belief in our classroom, my students will now have access to sensory tools that will transform their learning experience.

    Your donation has made it possible for us to bring in materials like Liquid Sensory Floor Tiles, DoodleJamz JellyBoards, Alphabet Sensory Toys, and SLIMYSAND, which are essential for fostering creativity, engagement, and emotional well-being. These resources will turn everyday lessons into exciting, hands-on experiences while providing my students with a calming outlet to manage stress and refocus.

    My students are already thrilled at the thought of exploring these new tools, and I can’t wait to see their smiles and growth as they interact with them. Whether they’re using the Alphabet Sensory Toys to reinforce phonics or the DoodleJamz JellyBoards for artistic exploration, these materials will make a lasting impact on their learning journey.

    Thank you for believing in my students and investing in their potential. Your support helps create a classroom environment where every child feels valued, supported, and capable of achieving great things.

    I’ll be sure to share updates and pictures of how these sensory tools are being used in our classroom. Please know that you’ve made a real difference in the lives of these exceptional students.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Henderson

  • Seating Solutions: Enhancing Learning Through Flexibility and Engagement

    Funded May 17, 2024

    I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous support of our classroom project, "Seating Solutions: Enhancing Learning Through Flexibility and Engagement." The impact of your contributions has been immediate and transformative for my students. The moment they saw the new seating options like the wobble stools and comfy floor seats their excitement was contagious! It was incredible to watch them eagerly test out the flexible seating and immediately feel more comfortable and engaged in their learning. One student, who often struggled to stay focused, expressed how much easier it was to concentrate while using the wobble stool. This new freedom to move has allowed students to channel their energy constructively, and I've already noticed improved attention spans during lessons.

    These seating options have been particularly impactful during our reading time. The students now love meeting with their partners or small groups, settling into comfortable spots in the classroom to dive into their books. This new setup has sparked an increased interest in reading, with many students asking for more time to read and discuss their books with peers. It's been amazing to see their enthusiasm grow, and the flexible seating has truly created an environment where they are excited to collaborate and engage with texts in new and meaningful ways.

    As we move forward, I know that these seating solutions will continue to enhance our daily routines, especially during independent and partner reading time. Thank you again for helping us create a space that fosters not only better focus but also a deeper love for reading!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Henderson
