The materials provided to my classroom and students make a significant impact on our learning community. The headphones alone made a huge impact. The majority of my students did not bring headphones from home, so now I have been able to provide them with this basic supply. The books I received have been so wonderful. I use them for read-alouds, which builds a love for reading. They also are in my classroom library for students to read during independent reading time. The birthday pencil bring a smile to each student on their birthday! It makes their day so special. The electric pencil sharpener is a time-saver and necessity for a classroom. Again, thank you so much for your contribution to my third grade classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1755737478962,"projectUrl":"project/ready-set-go/9456344/","projectTitle":"Ready, Set, Go!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tevet","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8490196_orig.jpg?crop=1088,1088,x524,y94&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1686670678982","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8490196"},{"teacherId":7529120,"projectId":9671815,"letterContent":"Hello,\r\n\r\nI want to extend my deepest gratitude for your generous support and for funding my project. Your contribution has made a remarkable difference, not only in the classroom but in the lives of each of my students. When I first began planning this project, I hoped it would open new doors for my learners, especially those who were struggling to build foundational reading skills. Thanks to your generosity, that hope has become a reality. The materials you helped provide have already had a transformative impact, and I want to share just how meaningful that has been for us.\r\n\r\nMany of my students come to school eager to learn, but without the tools or resources that can truly help them thrive. Reading is one of the most essential skills a child can acquire, yet it is also one of the most challenging for students who lack early literacy support. With the materials funded through your donation—books, manipulatives, literacy centers, and targeted learning resources—my students have been able to engage with reading in ways that are accessible, enjoyable, and empowering. I have watched hesitant readers grow more confident, shy students volunteer to read aloud, and struggling learners experience those \"aha\" moments that every teacher treasures. These changes might seem small on the surface, but they represent a profound shift in the way my students see themselves as learners.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has not only provided physical resources; it has provided motivation, encouragement, and a sense of possibility. My students understand that someone outside our classroom cares about their education and believes in their potential. That knowledge alone has inspired them to push harder, stay more focused, and take pride in their progress. It has also strengthened our classroom community, reminding us all that learning is a shared journey—one that connects us to people who want to see young minds flourish.\r\n\r\nFor me personally, your support has been both uplifting and energizing. Teaching can at times feel overwhelming, especially when resources are limited and needs are great. Your donation has reminded me why I chose this profession and why I continue to advocate for my students every day. Knowing that there are people like you who recognize the value of education and who are willing to invest in children's futures gives teachers like me renewed hope and motivation.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of my students, their families, and myself, thank you once again for your kindness, your generosity, and your belief in the power of education. The impact of your support reaches far beyond the walls of our classroom, and its effects will stay with my students for years to come. We are truly, deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1758289470003,"projectUrl":"project/phonics-and-sight-words-can-be-fun-too/9671815/","projectTitle":"Phonics and Sight Words Can Be Fun Too!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jacob","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7529120_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1626927588555","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7529120"},{"teacherId":7481897,"projectId":9300416,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous contributions that allowed our classroom to purchase an air purifier. This gift has already made a tremendous impact on both the health and comfort of our students and staff. Many of our learners with autism have heightened sensitivities to environmental factors such as dust, allergens, and odors, which can make it difficult for them to concentrate or even remain calm in the classroom. With the air purifier in place, the air is cleaner and fresher, creating a safer and more predictable environment that supports their unique sensory needs. Teachers have also noticed fewer allergy-related symptoms, less fatigue, and a greater sense of well-being throughout the day.\r\n\r\nThis resource has made a significant impact on our classroom. Students are better able to focus on their learning and classroom routines, and teachers can spend more energy on instruction rather than managing environmental distractions. We are deeply grateful for your support in helping us provide the best possible setting for learners with autism to grow, learn, and thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1752505318943,"projectUrl":"project/improving-classroom-air-quality-for-stud/9300416/","projectTitle":"Improving Classroom Air Quality for Students With Autism","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wade","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7481897"},{"teacherId":9351251,"projectId":9288003,"letterContent":"When our new classroom resources arrived, my students could hardly contain their excitement! They were especially fascinated by the Stabilo Woody 3-in-1 pencils, testing how bold the black color looked on graph paper and folders. The privacy folders also made a big impact—they turned a routine math quiz into a moment of focus and independence, and several students commented on how much easier it was to concentrate. One of the sweetest moments was watching students line up to use our new electric pencil sharpener, cheering when their pencils came out perfectly sharpened.\r\n\r\nWe've already been putting these supplies to good use in daily lessons. The graph paper has become a favorite during math activities, while the \"I Need Help\" flip charts have helped even my quietest students find a way to ask questions. The motivational stickers and stamps have added a burst of encouragement, and the new posters have brightened up our math wall. The fluorescent light filters even made the classroom calmer—one student said, \"It feels cozy in here now!\" These small changes have created a big difference in how the classroom feels and functions.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, my students are preparing to start a math project where they'll track and graph real-life data. With the new folders and organizational supplies, they'll be able to manage their work more independently, and the rewards and notes home will give me even more ways to celebrate their growth. Thank you for giving us the tools to learn, stay organized, and feel proud of our progress—your generosity has truly made a lasting impact on our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1746785927344,"projectUrl":"project/math-magic-tools-for-a-bright-and-bold/9288003/","projectTitle":"Math Magic: Tools for a Bright and Bold Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Monroy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9351251_orig.jpg?crop=1200,1200,x0,y144&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1707793764026","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9351251"},{"teacherId":7481897,"projectId":8989106,"letterContent":"Everyday in my class, the students spend 15 minutes doing independent reading.

In order to keep stocked up on the books they love, I visit the public library every weekend. From your donation of the Owl Diaries series and the Dog Man series, I will be able to get these books in hands of all 19 of my students by the end of the year! They enjoy these books so much, so the reading time is fun, not a chore.
