Now all of my students have access to a scientific calculator that is helping them be successful in my classroom. The calculators are helping them effectively complete their assignments as a lot of these problems can only be completed with calculators. \r\n\r\nWe received new desks that are lighter in color and become visibly dirty a lot faster than our older desks, so the wipes are helping our classroom look nicer. \r\n\r\nThe snacks have been a success. My students get so excited about playing math games because they are competitive and want the opportunity to win a prize. This has made them more involved in the games and they have been learning the materials and they have been doing a lot better on assessments. My D/F rate is very low as a result. Thank you so much! My students and I really appreciate you taking your time and money to donate to us.

Your support provided us with notebooks, granola bars, chairs, chargers, sensory stickers, a label maker, calming light covers, and a wonderful selection of books, including a boxed set of \"Diary of a Wimpy Kid.\" Each of these items has made a meaningful impact in our classroom, especially in our low-income school where we serve students with disabilities. Your kindness and support have helped create a more comfortable, engaging, and productive learning environment.\r\n\r\nThe books have been a huge hit! students have been asking if they can read them during free time, and it's amazing to see them so excited about reading. These high-interest books have sparked joy and motivation, even in some of my most reluctant readers. The snacks and chargers have helped students stay focused, and the light covers have transformed the room into a calmer space. Many students ask me to keep just the covered lights on because it makes them feel more at ease. Thank you for making such a difference in our classroom. You've helped us build a space where students feel seen, supported, and inspired to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1739368340691,"projectUrl":"project/hs-special-education-classroom/8939680/","projectTitle":"HS Special Education Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Scoleri","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9830797"},{"teacherId":4579857,"projectId":8975251,"letterContent":"I can't thank you enough for feeding my hungry students!
