We also learned about different cultures and how they celebrate the holiday, or even if they don't. Your project helped our first graders understand that not everyone does the same traditions or views/believes the same thing.

They make it all worthwhile.\r\n\r\nWe see kids daily who do not bring a snack to school and watch their friends eat. Most of the time, we will save something from our breakfast for anyone who does not have a snack, or a friend will share with someone. However, that doesn't always happen.\r\n\r\nDonors like you make it so that all of our students can have a snack and keep the hungry feelings away.

The laminator kit and Scotch laminating pouches have allowed me to create durable learning tools that my students can use again and again. We are now using laminated center activities, vocabulary cards, reference charts, and behavior supports that stay clean and organized while giving students hands-on materials they can safely manipulate during lessons. This technology helps students learn by allowing them to interact with materials using dry-erase markers, practice skills repeatedly, and work more independently during small group and center time.\r\n\r\nMy students were especially excited when they realized they could write on many of the new materials and wipe them clean to try again. It has taken the pressure off making mistakes and encourages them to keep practicing until they understand the concept. The bright, durable materials have made classroom centers feel new and engaging, and students are eager to use them during our daily activities. Several students who previously felt hesitant about participating have become more confident because they know they can try, erase, and try again without worrying about ruining their work.\r\n\r\nThe Teachers Pay Teachers gift card has also allowed me to bring in high-quality, teacher-created resources that are tailored to my students' learning levels. These materials help me differentiate instruction so every student receives the support they need to succeed. Because of your generosity, my students now have access to engaging activities that make learning more interactive, meaningful, and fun. Thank you for helping create a classroom environment where students feel confident, supported, and excited to learn every day.","fullyFundedDate":1765639287954,"projectUrl":"project/preserving-history/9955420/","projectTitle":"Preserving History","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Peele","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9424422_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1710463837801","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9424422"},{"teacherId":8032709,"projectId":9851056,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for you generosity and heart felt kindness you have shown my class and myself.

It created a sense of community that went far beyond the games themselves.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the refreshments set up, their faces lit up with excitement.
