The bouncy chairs, wobble seats, and therapy ball chairs you helped provide have made a tremendous difference in our daily learning experience. Each morning, students choose the seating option that best matches how they're feeling that day. This small act of choice has had a big impact—giving them a sense of autonomy and helping them learn to identify and take care of their own needs. The movement and sensory input from these seats also support focus and engagement, allowing students to stay on task for longer periods of time and participate more meaningfully in lessons.\r\n\r\nThe desk dividers have been another game changer. With reduced distractions, students are able to focus more deeply on their work. In fact, during a recent math assessment, every student showed measurable growth—with scores increasing by at least 18% when given the privacy to concentrate and solve problems independently. Additionally, the classroom supplies you provided—folders, laminating sheets, binder rings, and sheet protectors—have sparked a new level of creativity and pride in our students. They are eager to design and share their projects, taking ownership of their learning in ways that are both meaningful and joyful.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has created a focused, flexible, and inspired classroom environment where students are empowered to learn. Thank you for believing in them and for helping make our classroom a place where every child can succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1746764286814,"projectUrl":"project/flexible-seating-for-focused-learning/9284445/","projectTitle":"Flexible Seating For Focused Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Straub","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3337778_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1449011866254","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/straub-denver"},{"teacherId":8648965,"projectId":9580826,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your contributions to our classroom!
