The new books have transformed our DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) time into one of the most joyful parts of the day. Students are excited to grab a book and dive right in—especially our favorites, the *Old Lady* books and the *Dragon Girls* series! These engaging stories have helped my students build fluency, comprehension, and a true excitement for reading. When a student doesn't have a library book, they can now check out one from our classroom collection, ensuring everyone always has something to enjoy.\r\n\r\nThe classroom bags you provided have also been a huge help during our math station groups. Each group keeps their manipulatives, task cards, and materials neatly inside, making transitions quick and organized. This system has encouraged teamwork, responsibility, and independence in my students.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students the tools to read, learn, and stay organized every day.

We have used the safety googles to show that safety is first, but necessary , when learning science.\r\n\r\nWe have incoroporated the building of the robots into our after-school robotics club. Because of the robots that your company sent to use, the students were able to build a larger robot and participate in the district competition. They enjoyed the fruit snacks as prizes for answering science related questions. My male students really enjoyed building the race track to show how force and motion is applied.\r\n\r\nBecause of the donations, the next steps are to continue to use the resource as review for the state exam. Students will get the practice that they need to continue their knowledge and background for science.
