They were astonished at how nicely everything was able to fit. No more digging through stacks of papers to find something, or hunting for supplies! A highlight for me was watching a group of students use the binder rings and folders to create their own study guides for our social studies unit. They were proud to be able to keep their materials organized and even said that it made studying \"less stressful.\"\r\n\r\nThe heavy-duty locking cabinet has already made a world of difference. The necessary resources are safe, organized, and readily available to students when needed. The hole punch and file organizers have also allowed my students to take more ownership in their work. They can keep track of their assignments and create binders that showcase their progress.\r\n\r\nOur next goal is to further student independence by having them keep their own organized binders throughout the year. These new items are helping us form habits that will benefit students long after they leave this classroom. Thank you for your generosity. My students now have the tools they need to be successful in a more structured and supportive classroom environment.","fullyFundedDate":1756399375018,"projectUrl":"project/neat-tidy-and-ready-to-learn/9452702/","projectTitle":"“Neat, Tidy, and Ready to Learn!”","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Poublanc","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10073680_orig.jpg?crop=2231,2231,x0,y371&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752017628175","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10073680"},{"teacherId":8668704,"projectId":9037119,"letterContent":"Our deep gratitude towards your exceptional backing of Bright Minds, Bold Supplies: Tools for Creative Learning extends beyond words for my students and me.

It was deeply touching to see how my students shared their work with pride while their confidence increased.\r\n\r\nAs we move ahead, these resources will enhance our lessons, enabling students to participate in creative projects that expand their knowledge of history, culture, and storytelling.

We \"already feel the difference this has made in our classroom, as these are some needed materials. You are thoughtful and dedicated to the school and have given me the means to encourage and empower my students daily.\r\n\r\nThey shipped the necessary classroom supplies: notebooks, writing materials, desk tools, and art supplies. These items are not \"things. They are the \"engines of thought, concentration,n, and learning. For example, the system tools have enabled us to make learning kits for each student to get the content at the beginning of the lesson. The supplies helped students with everything from coming up with story ideas to writing research papers, which increased student participation in their written work. Because we now have these resources easily accessible, there are fewer interruptions during class and more time for learning.\r\n\r\nThe best part was seeing the art equipment for the first time, my students. They had eyes glowing with pure excitement and enthusiasm. I heard one student exclaim: \"We are going \"to create the greatest projects ever!\" That drove\" spilled over into their work. We recently used these items to construct images for a science experiment on ecosystems. Students drew, colored, and built models of the interconnectedness of plants, animals, and nature. The project gave them a better knowledge of the subject matter and promoted initiative and cooperation, which they stayed with.\r\n\r\nTheir package also included teaching tools and classroom resources, which have been a lifesaver for me as a teacher. For instance, the bins and folders allowed students to track what they kept track of creativity and responsibility. A fellow student who never had much organization told me they had arranged all their papers and materials elegantly. These little victories count and go a long way toward their academic achievement.\r\n\r\nIn the future, the supplies will still be included in daily lessons and projects. As for the notebooks and pens, we're journaling, where students will journal what they've learned about personal academic resolutions. The art supplies will be used in a social studies assignment, in which students construct visual chronologies of history that marry the research method with the creative process. \r\n\r\nYour giving has brought concrete implements and made my students confident and more interested in the classroom. They are noticed, they feel rewarded, and they want to give their best. You are the reason they will live with that and believe in the power of education. Your goodness makes us think of a community of goodwill in a classroom. Please welcome every one of us as part of this journey. We are endlessly grateful!\r\n\r\nWith appreciation,","fullyFundedDate":1731538097924,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-essentials-shipment-2024-11-1/8943193/","projectTitle":"Classroom Essentials Shipment: 2024-11-13","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Poublanc","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8668704_orig.jpg?crop=1536,1536,x0,y256&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1687120427632","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8668704"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_16735","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":527,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":55,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"14.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":48.2,"schoolId":16735,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Estelle Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Estelle Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/louisiana/jefferson-parish-schools/estelle-elementary-school/16735"}
