Sensory and anxiety fidgets proved to be invaluable for students who struggled with focus, anxiety, or sensory processing challenges. These tools provided calming input, allowing students to regulate their emotions and stay engaged in their learning. By addressing these needs, we were able to create a more inclusive classroom where every student had the support they needed to actively participate.\r\n\r\nScholastic News also played a key role in enhancing literacy skills throughout the class. Its engaging, real-world topics sparked excitement around reading and helped students strengthen vital skills like vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking. This resource was particularly beneficial for early and struggling readers, who found the content both accessible and motivating. Additionally, the headphones allowed students to fully engage with digital learning tools without distractions, helping them stay focused during independent tasks like phonics practice and personalized learning programs.\r\n\r\nTogether, these resources supported the academic, social, and emotional growth of each student, helping create a classroom where all learners could succeed and feel confident.","fullyFundedDate":1757013994338,"projectUrl":"project/tools-for-success/9464111/","projectTitle":"Tools for Success!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mason","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3097771_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472991326050","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3097771"},{"teacherId":3097771,"projectId":9219921,"letterContent":"My ELL students completed many exciting hands-on projects using a butterfly life cycle kit, which brought science and language learning together in a powerful way. As the caterpillars arrived and began their transformation, my students practiced vocabulary such as \"chrysalis,\" \"emerge,\" and \"metamorphosis,\" while also using sentence frames to describe observations like, \"The caterpillar is crawling,\" or \"The butterfly has orange wings.\" The real-time changes sparked meaningful conversation, journal writing, and group discussions, building both academic language and confidence. This experience provided a rich context for learning English through observation, inquiry, and storytelling.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the tiny live caterpillars, their faces lit up with awe and curiosity. Many had never seen this process before, and the materials immediately captured their attention. They eagerly asked questions and checked on the caterpillars each morning, documenting changes with drawings and words. One student said, \"I can't believe it! It's magic!\" Watching the butterflies finally emerge and then releasing them into nature was a moment of pride and joy, and it created lasting memories for all.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we will build on their writing skills by creating mini-books in English to share their knowledge with peers and families. Thanks to the generous support of donors, my classroom has become a more interactive and joyful place to learn, and my students are thriving because of it.","fullyFundedDate":1743459635412,"projectUrl":"project/butterflies-and-language/9219921/","projectTitle":"Butterflies and Language","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mason","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3097771_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472991326050","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3097771"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_52294","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":659,"numTeachers":46,"percentFrplEligible":44,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":8,"percentWhite":55,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 9","studentTeacherRatio":"14.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":63.2,"schoolId":52294,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Fairmont Junior High School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Fairmont Junior High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/idaho/independent-school-district-of-boise-city-1/fairmont-junior-high-school/52294"}
