Your kindness has made a real difference in the daily lives of my special education students here on the reservation.\r\n\r\nFor many of my students, something as simple as having a clean, organized place to store their shoes and a fresh pair of socks each day provides more than just comfort—it gives them a sense of dignity, routine, and belonging. The new shoe racks have helped create a more organized and welcoming classroom environment, allowing the students to take pride in their personal space.\r\n\r\nThe socks you provided have also brought so much joy and relief. Many of our families face daily challenges, and having these basic essentials means one less worry for parents and students alike.

The materials you provided have become an essential part of our classroom environment, offering students opportunities to engage with learning in a way that is both calming and enriching. Items such as ball pit, weighted blanket and fidget toys, allow our students to regulate their sensory needs and maintain focus, which leads to better learning outcomes.\r\n\r\nFor many of my students, these tools are more than just objects—they are a lifeline that helps them navigate the classroom environment. The ability to take a break with a fidget tool, or use calming visuals and textures, allows them to stay grounded and engaged in their education. It creates an atmosphere where students feel safe to explore, express themselves, and take risks without fear of becoming overwhelmed.\r\n\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in their futures.

The microscopes, beakers, alcohol lamp, mixing bowl, electric cooker, and lab suits have all been used to bring hands-on learning of STEM to life for my 5th-grade students.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, there was instant excitement and energy. Students were excitedly viewing the actual science equipment they read or viewed just on the internet. They especially were amazed at the microscopes—we spent the first lesson essentially viewing classroom items, strands of hair, water droplets, and leafy samples. Students were surprised that the world tiny became real.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite projects involved watching mold formation on different types of bread. We used the beakers and mixing bowls to make different solutions to try to test preservation methods, and microscopes allowed the students to peer at mold spores in detail. They asked good questions and even began to formulate hypotheses for future experiments. It was a beautiful thing to see curiosity turn into inquiry-based learning.\r\n\r\nWe also used the alcohol lamp and electric cooker to test heat effects on other substances such as water and sugar safely. The students wore the lab suits like pros, acting like real scientists who were poised to make their discoveries.\r\n\r\nWe are currently doing a project on water quality today. Students have been collecting water samples from different sources and comparing what they see under the microscopes. Next, we will build simple filters and observe how effective they are. These uses have enabled students to connect science to their daily lives and understand and be interested.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your support.

My students love that they can write and draw to their hearts' content without worrying about wasting paper or running out of dry-erase marker ink. The colorful writing surface makes learning fun, and even reluctant writers can't wait to take a turn. Whether they're working on math problems, writing spelling words, or just doodling during free time, these boards make them feel happy and independent. I often see students helping each other with the use of the boards or proudly showing off their creations.\n\nOne student, in particular, who typically resists writing on paper due to handwriting challenges, now voluntarily offers to solve problems on the doodle board. The informal and interactive environment has made a tremendous amount of difference in his confidence.\n\nThe mini iPad has also made a huge difference, especially with classroom management. Using the ClassDojo app, I can deliver points instantly and discreetly, monitor behaviors, and message students about their choices in the moment. It is so much easier to transition and maintain student engagement when I can move around the room and stay connected to how they are performing. Students are now more aware of their behavior and prompted to stay on task because they know they're being positively identified. \n\nThis kind of technology is not just a convenience—it's a tool that transforms how we learn and grow together in the classroom.

Your contribution has already had a remarkable impact, and we are thrilled to share with you how it is benefiting our students.\r\n\r\nThe addition of the trampoline to our classroom has created an engaging, therapeutic space that is helping our students with sensory processing challenges and physical disabilities. For many of our students, movement is a crucial part of their learning and emotional regulation. The trampoline offers them an opportunity to release pent-up energy, improve coordination, and enhance motor skills, all in a fun and safe way. It's also been invaluable in helping students with ADHD, anxiety, and sensory processing disorders calm down and refocus during lessons, fostering a more balanced and attentive classroom environment.\r\n\r\nBeyond the physical benefits, the trampoline has proven to be a tool for socialization and confidence-building. Students are more willing to engage with their peers and take turns, building important social skills in a relaxed, non-competitive setting. The sense of accomplishment and joy they experience when using the trampoline has a profound effect on their self-esteem and overall well-being, reinforcing their ability to succeed in both the classroom and beyond.\r\n\r\nWe are truly grateful for your support in providing this wonderful resource, which is making a tangible difference in the lives of our students.
