Recently, we used them during Nonfiction Friday, where students read nonfiction pieces and write responses on their iPads. Before your gift, we often had students receiving 0% on the assignment due to dead batteries, causing a lot of frustration. Now, students simply plug in and keep their momentum going. One specific moment that stood out was seeing a group of students huddled around a charging station, collaborating on a constructed response without a single worry about their devices dying before they could \"run\" their code.\r\nWhen the students first saw the new charging cables attached to our charging dock, there was a collective sigh of relief! They were so impressed that people they hadn't even met cared enough to make sure they had the tools they needed to succeed. It made them feel like their education is truly valued.\r\nNow that we are \"fully powered,\" our next big step is diving into the Keystone exams.

The items that were sponsored for my classroom and kids are used every day. From the giant post-its with information and projects that surround the room to the printer to ensure they have printouts to work from instead of only electronic documents, to the snacks available for students who didn't eat lunch, these materials have a huge impact on their learning and academic activities. While they may not notice there is something new and exciting to decorate the room, they often ask where school supplies and/or food come from. \r\n\r\nFor example, there is one student who comes to mind. He is a bright young man who comes to class hungry on most occasions. At the end of almost every class, he asks if I have anything for him to eat because he didn't get a chance to eat lunch. Luckily, I'm able to provide him with food to ensure he comes to the learning environment ready to participate and be actively engaged. Likewise, when students forget their lunch but have after-school sports at the end of their day, I have something to give them to sustain themselves. \r\n\r\nThank you, again, for allowing me to help these kids directly in a way that matters immediately. Whether it be food, reading comprehension supplies, or printed copies to help them learn in the best way possible, these supplies all add up and make a huge difference.","fullyFundedDate":1768711316716,"projectUrl":"project/help-me-with-warmth-care-hunger/10032602/","projectTitle":"Help me with Warmth, Care, & Hunger","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mayrosh","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9694986"},{"teacherId":9692121,"projectId":10051762,"letterContent":"On behalf of myself and my students, we wish to thank you for your great generosity.

In addition to providing more instructional time for discussion and debate, students were able to practice independent reading and cognition skills. With the post it notes and writing supplies, students were able to practice annotation, a skill that is invaluable to reading comprehension and analytical thought. The art supplies sparked creativity and brought the literature to life, as students created \"the beast\" that lurks within humanity. \r\n\r\nI ask my students to complete a survey at the end of each semester, asking them to rank their favourite piece of literature from the class, and this is the first time they were in unanimous agreement on Lord of the Flies.
