The new dry-erase clipboards and sentence strips have become everyday tools for phonics, writing, and small-group lessons. My students love being able to work anywhere in the room with their clipboards and take ownership of their learning.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials arrived, the excitement was contagious! Students were eager to explore their new supplies—especially the bright sentence strips and pencil pouches, which made it easy for everyone to have their tools ready to go. The Post-it chart paper has been perfect for creating anchor charts that we reference during our reading and writing lessons, and the menu covers have turned into reusable literacy centers and word work stations.\r\n\r\nThese simple but essential resources have helped my students stay organized and motivated while building foundational skills in reading and writing. Your generosity has made a lasting impact on our classroom routines and on my students' confidence as learners.
