The whisper reading phones have become a favorite tool during independent reading time, helping students hear themselves read more clearly and stay focused while building fluency. The noise-canceling headphones have also made a huge difference, especially for students who are easily distracted or sensitive to sound. They now have a way to take ownership of their learning environment and work more comfortably during independent tasks and assessments. Even small items like the Valentine's Day pencils helped build classroom community and motivation—students were genuinely excited to use them, which made everyday work feel more special and encouraged positive attitudes toward learning.\r\n\r\nThe watercolor paints and paint brushes have allowed us to incorporate more creativity into our lessons, especially during comprehension and writing activities. Students have used them to illustrate scenes from stories, represent their thinking, and make deeper connections to what they are learning. This has been especially helpful for students who express themselves better through art than words alone. Providing high-quality materials has elevated the experience, helping students take pride in their work and stay engaged for longer periods of time. Altogether, these resources have supported both academic growth and a joyful, inclusive classroom environment where every student has tools to succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1759768985665,"projectUrl":"project/3rd-grade-classroom-supplies/9794523/","projectTitle":"3rd Grade Classroom Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Easley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9655742_orig.png?crop=470,470,x51,y218&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1726356382937","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9655742"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_53442","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":389,"numTeachers":23,"percentFrplEligible":16,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":59,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":25,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"16.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":87.5,"schoolId":53442,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Canyon View Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Canyon View Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/arizona/catalina-foothills-unified-school-district-16/canyon-view-elementary-school/53442"}
