These materials may seem simple, but they have made a big difference in our classroom. Markers and crayons allow my students to organize their thinking, express their ideas, and bring their learning to life through color and creativity. The books give them new opportunities to explore, imagine, and strengthen their love of reading. Watching my students eagerly choose a book or reach for a marker to share their ideas reminds me how important it is to give them the resources they need to feel successful.\r\nThe cleaning and organizational supplies are just as valuable. A clean, organized classroom helps my students stay healthy, focused, and ready to learn. When our classroom is tidy and welcoming, my students feel more comfortable and take greater pride in their learning environment. Moving forward, we will continue using these resources during our daily lessons, reading activities, and creative projects. Because of your generosity, my students have more opportunities to learn, create, explore, and grow each day. Thank you for investing in my students and helping make our classroom a place where they feel cared for, encouraged, and excited to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1775753669989,"projectUrl":"project/supplies-for-bright-minds-and-big-ideas/10096920/","projectTitle":"Supplies for Bright Minds and Big Ideas","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mercado","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10433576"},{"teacherId":10433576,"projectId":10095100,"letterContent":"These materials have made a meaningful difference in my classroom by giving students the hands-on resources they need to stay engaged and actively participate in learning.

Your generosity means so much to me and my students. By providing essential personal-care and hygiene supplies, you are helping my students feel more comfortable, confident, and prepared to learn each day.\r\n\r\nAs a teacher, I know that students learn best when they feel safe, cared for, and confident. Having access to items such as deodorant, body wipes, lotion, hand sanitizer, laundry detergent, and stain-removal supplies allows me to support students with their everyday self-care needs in a discreet and respectful way. These resources may seem simple, but they can make a tremendous difference in a child's confidence and ability to focus in the classroom.\r\n\r\nYour donation is more than a collection of supplies—it is a reminder to my students that they matter and that their well-being is important.

I wrote a grant to the National Wildlife Federation, I collaborated with teachers, students, and community volunteers to transform an unused outdoor space into a Certified Monarch Garden. I organized after-school and week workdays, guided students in planting native species, and modeled how to integrate hands-on science and literacy connections through TEKS-aligned lessons. Additionally, I mentored teachers on using the garden and outdoor learning as a living classroom to promote inquiry, data collection, and reflective writing.\r\nThis co-curricular initiative resulted in significant improvements in student achievement and engagement. As a result, the school was certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a Wildlife Habitat. As a result Students demonstrated greater motivation to participate in outdoor investigations and apply scientific vocabulary in their writing.Teachers reported increased confidence in integrating hands-on, outdoor lessons into daily instruction.","fullyFundedDate":1761853199173,"projectUrl":"project/monarch-heros-garden/9782243/","projectTitle":"Monarch Heros Garden","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cruz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5631418_orig.jpg?crop=2872,2872,x0,y141&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1764085576434","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5631418"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_126283","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":580,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":92,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":68,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.5,"schoolId":126283,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Eddie Bernice Johnson STEM Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Eddie Bernice Johnson STEM Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/dallas-independent-school-district/eddie-bernice-johnson-elementary-school/126283"}
