The lotion, pencil top erasers, motivational pencils, microfiber towels, and disinfectant wipes are already being used. \r\n\r\nHere is how they are working in my classroom:\r\nDisinfectant wipes - the back-to-school germs have been in full force, and cleaning is a must. Students also like to wipe down their Chromebooks when other students have marked on them. \r\n\r\nMicrofiber towels - I have been able to use these for wipeboard activities and when I spill my tea or coffee. \r\n\r\nLotion - Why do schools have soap and paper towels that dry out our hands? The lotion is readily available for anyone to use. \r\n\r\nIncentive pencils - These are going to be a game this week when we have our first district assessment. I am going to give one to anyone who needs/wants one. \r\n\r\nPencil top erasers - Erasers are starting to fall off, thanks to those who like to pick at them, and now we need replacement erasers. Students can return the pencil, but keep the eraser. \r\n\r\nAgain, thank you for the donation. I greatly appreciate it.","fullyFundedDate":1753378700581,"projectUrl":"project/things-you-didnt-know-we-needed-but-to/9474664/","projectTitle":"Things You Didn’t Know We Needed (But Totally Do!)","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Coleman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9241029_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y152&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1693421328933","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsamycolemanahills"},{"teacherId":9241029,"projectId":9149057,"letterContent":"Thank you very much for your donation to my project. Your donation has already been put to use, helping to keep students organized.\r\n\r\nFirst, all my students have a folder to store their work.

It has been a game-changer when they need to keep something from the day(s) before and can get it out quickly. \r\n\r\nSecondly, the hanging file folders help me to keep things organized. I have 3 classes (I see them twice each day, so a total of 6 classes), and they are colored coded. My students know if they are red, blue, or green. Each folder is also numbered, thus students know where to put their folders, composition books, and other supplies.
