They have never not had a day that the puppets were not played with. The puppet theater is a favorite center now- always having visitors. One of my children loves the puppets dearly and thinks about them even when he is not at school.\r\n\r\nThe puppets have and will continue to be used to introduce a new letter as in this week we are learning Bb and the puppet is a ballerina. We will also use them to practice retelling stories.

My classroom would not be what it is without the efforts of Donorschoose.\r\n\r\nIn my classroom, we have used the materials endlessly. For example, I am able to positively reinforce my students through the kinetic sand boxes provided to me. When my students first saw the kinetic sand boxes, they were ecstatic.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, I was able to hang up different posters and educational materials on my walls with ease due to the sticky tack provided to me. Students have their own bins that help them feel like home in the classroom. \r\n\r\nNext, my students would benefit greatly from flexible seating such as exercise ball chairs and wobble stools.
