The school never gives teachers enough paper to last for the school year. Now I have enough paper (all kinds of paper) for the students to use for projects and for me to create worksheets that provide extra help with the curriculum. \r\n\r\nYou even gave us ruled paper which is badly needed to support 30 kids in daily homework writing assignments. \r\n\r\nWe are especially enjoying the colored paper for a fun reason. Now, all of our field trip permission slips go out on different colors which makes it so easy to identify and keep track of as they come in. We embark on a lot of field trips to support learning and sometimes I have to send out more than one slip at a time.

The students absolutely love them. \r\n\r\nWe use them mostly in math class. Students can think through problems and erase without wasting time. For the kids, the dry erase markers are more fun to learn with but they do not replace paper and pencil. Students are able ton work through problems first and make easy changes while they are thinking and then transfer their final thoughts to paper. \r\n\r\nThe dry erase system gives my student more support for their thinking and those that hesitate when it comes to math will try harder by using the dry erase markers.

My students feel so good when they are challenged with grade level materials but they know they can have some comfort and extra practice if they need to work below grade level. These materials are especially supportive and helpful for those students who are working more than one grade level below. They do not have to feel fearful because they feel successful. There is also materials for those that are well above grade level.

Students can fill their water cups in the morning and because of the material of the cup, the water stays cold for the entire morning. Instruction time is not interrupted.

With the correct signal to the teacher students can retrieve water as needed, take their seat and continue to be engaged in the learning.

It is more special because none of my students have ever had the opportunity to try latch hooking. It's the perfect activity for indoor recess and art time. It's just one more way to show kids that there is so much to learn out there and I think learning this craft encourages kids to be curious enough to try other activities. Soon my students will develop hobbies as I continue to share crafts with them. \r\n\r\nIt has been tricky to learn how to handle the latch hook just as much for the girls as the boys, however it really is \"productive struggle\".

The cozy corner truly inspires them to see reading as something enjoyable and comforting. Many of my students have said this is now their \"favorite spot in the classroom,\" and I can already see how it is fostering a deeper love for books.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, my students now have a safe and inviting space that supports their learning and sparks their imagination.
