These easels allow students to work together in small groups, share their thinking, and solve problems in a hands-on, interactive way. It has been wonderful to watch my students explain their strategies, learn from one another, and grow in confidence as mathematicians. The easels encourage them to take risks, try different approaches, and understand that making mistakes is an important part of learning.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new materials, they were so excited! They loved having a new way to show their thinking and work together with their classmates. The whiteboards make math more engaging and give every student an opportunity to participate, share ideas, and feel proud of their accomplishments. Seeing their excitement and watching them become more confident problem-solvers has been such a joy.\r\n\r\nAs we continue our Building Thinking Classrooms math lessons, students will work together to solve increasingly challenging problems, explain their reasoning, and learn from one another's ideas. I am so grateful to the generous donors who made this project possible. Your kindness has given my students more than just whiteboard easels; you have given them new opportunities to explore, collaborate, build confidence, and discover the joy of learning. Knowing that people believe in my students and want to invest in their success means so much to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making our classroom a place where young learners can grow, take risks, and shine. Your generosity is making a lasting difference in their learning journey!","fullyFundedDate":1784655349123,"projectUrl":"project/collaborate-create-discover/10382165/","projectTitle":"Collaborate, Create, Discover!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Flory","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10552666_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1784224475315","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10552666"},{"teacherId":3587980,"projectId":9908473,"letterContent":"I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your generous support of our project at Arrowhead Elementary School. Because of your funding, we were able to purchase items for our Positive Behavior Store, known as the PAWS Store, which has had a meaningful and positive impact on our students and school community.\r\n\r\nThe PAWS Store plays an important role in supporting our school-wide goal of increasing and recognizing positive behavior and social-emotional growth. Students earn PAWS tickets by demonstrating expected behaviors such as being respectful, responsible, safe, and kind. These tickets can then be used to shop at the PAWS Store, reinforcing positive choices in a concrete and motivating way.\r\n\r\nSince the implementation of the PAWS Store, we have seen increased student engagement and enthusiasm around positive behavior expectations. Students are more motivated to make good choices, take responsibility for their actions, and show kindness toward others. The store has also provided opportunities for students to practice important social-emotional skills, including goal-setting, patience, decision-making, and self-control as they save and spend their tickets.\r\n\r\nPerhaps most importantly, the PAWS Store helps ensure that positive behavior is noticed, celebrated, and valued. For many students, this recognition builds confidence and a sense of belonging, contributing to a more positive and supportive school climate.\r\n\r\nYour support has made a lasting difference for our students, and we are truly grateful for your investment in their success—both academically and socially. Thank you for helping us create an environment where positive behavior is encouraged and celebrated every day.","fullyFundedDate":1763868960868,"projectUrl":"project/paws-store-funds/9908473/","projectTitle":"PAWS Store Funds","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bloodworth","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3587980_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1513726833338","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3587980"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_53956","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":488,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":39,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":8,"percentWhite":46,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":9,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":75.3,"schoolId":53956,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Arrowhead Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Arrowhead Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/deer-valley-unified-school-district/arrowhead-elementary-school/53956"}
