Our students were so exited to see the packages arrive and the opening of the packages. \r\nOur students have enjoyed the Beginning Sound Rockets. They have helped our students understand that two pictures can have the same sound. The whiteboard pens and erasers help our students have the materials to participate in dictation. The write/wipe off pockets have encourage handwriting. The letter blocks have encouraged letter recognition and word formation. All of these activities encourage sharing and independence!

Your kindness has made a wonderful difference in our second-grade classroom and has helped our students begin the school year feeling prepared, excited, and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, our students received important classroom materials such as crayons, pencil baskets, headphones, containers, laminating film and wet wipes. These supplies may seem simple, but they play an important role in helping our classroom run smoothly. Having the materials they need allows our students to participate fully in classroom activities, stay organized, and focus on learning.\r\n\r\nThe headphones have been especially exciting for our students because they allow them to make the most of our classroom Chromebooks. Our second graders use Chromebooks for a variety of learning activities, including practicing reading and math skills, listening to stories, completing interactive assignments, researching age-appropriate topics, and building their technology skills. The headphones allow students to listen carefully and work independently without distracting their classmates. This is especially helpful when students are working at different levels or completing different activities.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting things for our students is the opportunity to use technology in an interactive way. They love logging onto their Chromebooks and seeing that learning can be engaging, hands-on, and fun. The headphones make the experience even more special because students can listen to directions, stories, and educational activities clearly while working independently.\r\n\r\nWe have also noticed that some of our more reserved students have really warmed up to Chromebook activities. Students who may not always volunteer to answer questions during whole-group instruction often become much more confident when they are able to work independently on their Chromebooks. We have seen smiles, excitement, and a growing sense of accomplishment as students complete activities and discover that they can be successful with technology.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has done more than provide school supplies. You have helped create an environment where our second graders can learn, explore, stay organized, and build confidence.You have given them tools that support both their academic growth and their independence.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and for making our Back-to-School Blessings project possible. Your support has already made a positive impact in our classroom, and we are so grateful that you chose to invest in our students and their education.","fullyFundedDate":1787585329086,"projectUrl":"project/back-to-school-blessings/10402972/","projectTitle":"Back to School Blessings","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Barangan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10290819"},{"teacherId":10094179,"projectId":10442843,"letterContent":"I am so grateful for your generous support of our classroom behavior reward project! The snacks and treats you provided have become a wonderful way to recognize and celebrate my students when they demonstrate positive behavior, kindness, responsibility, and a strong effort in the classroom. My students were so excited when they first saw the variety of snacks and treats. Their smiles and excitement made the rewards feel extra special!\r\n\r\nWe use these snacks as part of our behavior reward system to encourage students to make positive choices throughout the school day. It has been wonderful to see how motivated they are to follow classroom expectations, help their classmates, and do their best. Even a small treat can make a student feel proud and appreciated for their hard work and positive behavior.\r\n\r\nYour generosity is helping us create a positive and encouraging classroom environment where students learn that good choices and effort are worth celebrating.

As the packages began to arrive the students grew more and more eager to open them and see what was inside. When the equipment cart was rolled in and then the basket ball hoop they errupted with excitement. \r\n We brought the equipment cart out to recess today and the students had so much fun playing with the new balls and basket ball hoop. The flying disks were a huge hit. The students are already looking forward to a rainy day recess so we can use the nerf door hoop.

The bean bag has quickly become a favorite spot in our classroom for reading and reflection, creating a cozy corner that makes learning feel even more enjoyable. The cookies and chips were shared as a reward of their hardworks and the smiles on my students' faces showed just how much this special treat meant to them. These simple items brought so much joy and helped build a sense of community.\r\nOne of the most memorable moments was when a student curled up in the bean bag with a book and proudly announced that it was the most comfortable reading time they had ever had. Seeing my students use these resources not only for fun, but also to encourage a love for learning, has been so rewarding. The snacks also served as small but meaningful motivators that reminded them their hard work is always valued.\r\nLooking ahead, my students are excited to continue using the bean bag chair as part of our independent reading rotation. The treats have inspired me to plan more classroom celebrations where students can showcase their progress and share their achievements together. Your support has given us not just materials, but experiences that my students will remember. Thank you for being such an important part of our classroom journey.","fullyFundedDate":1758636533945,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-essentials/9693511/","projectTitle":"Classroom Essentials","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tinapay","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10094179"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_2684","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":354,"numTeachers":30,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":41,"percentWhite":14,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":36,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":5,"gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":64.6,"schoolId":2684,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Edward D Sadler Junior Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Edward D Sadler Junior Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/gaston-county-school-district/edward-sadler-junior-elementary-school/2684"}
