Your gift has already made a big difference in how we teach, learn, and share our work.\r\n\r\nMany of our donors are familiar with using technology at home, but classroom technology plays a unique and essential role in student learning. With the new printer, students are able to bring their digital work to life—printing stories they've written, research projects, artwork, and more. This helps them see the real-world value of their work and take pride in presenting it professionally.\r\n\r\nWhat's most exciting to our students is the ability to instantly print what they've created and share it with their peers, families, or display it in the classroom. For them, it turns learning into something tangible and lasting. They love seeing their names on printed pages—it makes their hard work feel official and meaningful.\r\n\r\nSome students in particular have really embraced the new technology. One student who typically struggles with handwriting has taken off using our classroom writing software and now proudly prints out his polished work. Another student who loves art has started designing mini-posters for classroom displays and newsletters, something that wasn't possible before. The printer has given them a new way to express themselves and feel successful.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your thoughtful support. Your donation is more than just a piece of equipment—it's a tool that empowers creativity, builds confidence, and helps students grow.","fullyFundedDate":1728381981061,"projectUrl":"project/5th-grade-projects/8856985/","projectTitle":"5th Grade Projects","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Solis-Sandoval","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8001676_orig.png?crop=398,398,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1646176767387","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8001676"},{"teacherId":9725124,"projectId":8915731,"letterContent":"On behalf of all the students, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to you for your generous donation of supplies.

When my students first saw the new materials, their faces lit up with excitement. They immediately started exploring, asking questions, and sharing their ideas with one another. It was a joy to see their enthusiasm and curiosity come to life.\r\n\r\nOne of the first ways we used the resources was during small group instruction. The manipulatives and visuals have made complex concepts so much more accessible, especially for my English learners. I recently watched a student, who typically struggles with math, confidently explain a concept to their partner using one of the new tools—it was a powerful moment!\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, my students will continue using these materials to strengthen their skills and deepen their understanding.

Your support means so much to our classroom and has already made a real impact on our students' learning and love of reading.\r\n\r\nMany of our donors, like you, love books—and so do we! What makes our classroom special is how we use books not just for enjoyment, but as powerful tools for learning. These new texts are helping us introduce important skills like identifying themes, analyzing characters' motivations, understanding point of view, and making evidence-based arguments about what we read.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom is an active, engaging experience. You'll often find students reading independently, in pairs, or gathered in small groups discussing a story. We also use reading journals to reflect on what we've read, make personal connections, and pose questions to each other. The books you've provided have given us fresh material to dive into with energy and curiosity.\r\n\r\nSome students have been especially inspired by the new books. One student who used to struggle with reading has found a favorite story that he can't put down, and he's now leading small group discussions with new confidence. Another student lit up when she saw a book that reflected her own background and experiences—something she said had never happened before. Moments like these show just how meaningful access to the right books can be.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your thoughtful gift.
