The process of getting them and putting them away is smoother easier, and less time consuming. I created a color coding and number system so it's easy for them to put their Chromebooks away. This cart allows 2 students at a time to put their Chromebooks away. This cart also takes up very little space in the classroom. Being in a very small classroom with 25 students and desks, this helps. We can't thank you enough!

The artists were SO excited to receive their end of the school year sketchbook challenge prize packs. They worked very hard completing each challenge so they could be rewarded. The kids were amazed at the quantity that was in their pack. \r\n\r\nWe also used the prizes to stock our prize wall where student who win the \"Art Smarts\" questions can pick a prize. Tables that earn points for behavior have also benefitted from all of the sweet treats and little toys. They are extremely excited when they get their chance to pick a prize.\r\n\r\nWe had SO many prizes that we still have some left to use at the beginning of this school year. This art teacher is happy that all of this didn't have to come directly from her pocket.","fullyFundedDate":1746443723012,"projectUrl":"project/treats-and-treasures-for-motivated-artis/9267571/","projectTitle":"Treats and Treasures for Motivated Artists","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bergman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7647345_orig.jpg?crop=511,511,x0,y37&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1700315622742","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7647345"},{"teacherId":7647345,"projectId":9325022,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your contribution to our purchase of Kwik Sticks solid tempera paint sticks.

As is pictured in the images shared.\r\n\r\nThe littlest artists especially benefit from using these sticks as they are easy to use and very clean compared to regular paint.

My goal for this project is to make a warm, stable classroom environment as well as having accessible resources for my students and I believe this has become a reality thank to you. My students feel at home when they come into my classroom. My students thrive independently in my classroom because they have the necessary tools to do so.\r\nSince these items were given to me before the year started, my students had no immediate reaction, however, the parents were very thankful there child would have the necessary resources to succeed. In my classroom, students use Chromebooks every day and some come to school without headphones. I got a class set for the students so they can use sound during this time. I also asked for organized drawers and this helps keep things together for their centers! In Kindergarten, we start centers a little later, however, I can now very excited to have them start their centers in an organized manner thanks to you!\r\n\r\nI am forever grateful for your donation.
