My students have absolutely loved having smaller whiteboard markers and erasers to use with their personal sized white boards. This makes it easy for students to try new things with less fear of messing up, as studies have shown being able to quickly erase and reattempt a problem on a white board feels less permanent and therefore has less of a negative impact when they make a mistake. One student in particular, Arihanna, loves the designs on the backs of the erasers and was thrilled to have updated materials!\r\n\r\nAdditionally, the Clorox wipes and laminator had allowed me to provide students with a clean and organized space in which to work. Many of my students will now voluntarily get themselves Clorox wipes when they walk into my room to sanitize their desk before they seat down. My students Maddi has become very passionate about this new routine of hers! The laminator you so kindly allowed me get has saved me countless times when our school laminator is down. I needed to laminate task cards for an activity before class one day and our school laminator was broken. I wouldn't have been prepared or been able to give students this activity without my handy dandy laminator!\r\n\r\nMy students and I can't thank you enough for making sure we have the materials we need to succeed this school year! Enjoy the included pictures of them using their new whiteboard materials :)","fullyFundedDate":1767720714449,"projectUrl":"project/stock-our-success-refuel-young-minds/9658736/","projectTitle":"Stock Our Success: Refuel Young Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Armstrong","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10033033"},{"teacherId":9832066,"projectId":8934080,"letterContent":"Thank you for donating to my classroom. My students have loved having flexible seating. For my students with attention issues, having the wooble stools have been wonderful. The students love seating where they want in the seat that they want to sit in. They get move and wiggle as much as they need so they can stay focused. This has added a wonderful new level for managing behavior. This is a positive way to reward the students for making good choices. \r\n\r\nThe students have started coming into class early. They want to make sure they can select the chair or the color that they want. I do not have problems with students being tardy to class anymore. They know if they get to class early, they can have their pick of seating.","fullyFundedDate":1741031790507,"projectUrl":"project/letting-high-schoolers-choose-where-they/8934080/","projectTitle":"Letting High Schoolers Choose Where They Sit","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Atkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9832066"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_6492","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1375,"numTeachers":79,"percentFrplEligible":69,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":37,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":45,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"17.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":43.5,"schoolId":6492,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Bluffton High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Bluffton High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/south-carolina/beaufort-county-school-district/bluffton-high-school/6492"}
