With organized systems in place, my class runs more smoothly, transitions are quicker, and students are developing the confidence to take charge of their own learning spaces.\r\n\r\nYour contribution didn't just bring order to our classroom—it created an environment where students can focus, explore, and thrive.

Some of the items have enabled me to decorate or hang student work, while other donations were focused solely on enriching or motivating students. These are the donations I would like to highlight.\r\n\r\n I've utilized the donated resources in multiple ways. For example, the bingo cards have been a great incentive and also a learning resource. Another benefit of donations is that the students are using Uno cards this week to create fact families with their partners. They've also been able to use counters as a physical resource to aid in solving multiplication and division problems. \r\n\r\nThe most highly anticipated items for my students have been the donations I've used for Friday motivation. This is a time when productive play happens for students who have accomplished their weekly independent learning goal. I requested multiple items that I've rotated through, and each has been a hit. The students loved playing with Play-Doh and creating food-themed creations. They've enjoyed using spatial skills and cooperation to build magnetic block masterpieces. The fort kit has been a hit as well and has been used as pretend weights, collaborating to make shapes, and a golf course. Their imaginations have been able to stretch and grow due to these donations. \r\n\r\nThese are experiences I wouldn't have been able to offer my students without your contribution and care. Ogden students are truly magical. Thank you for donating to these wonderful kiddos.","fullyFundedDate":1755695507674,"projectUrl":"project/first-year-back-in-a-decade-plus/9492490/","projectTitle":"First Year Back in A Decade Plus","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Barrett","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3474450_orig.png?crop=1062,1062,x0,y67&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753853279748","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3474450"},{"teacherId":315095,"projectId":9748203,"letterContent":"I am so appreciative for your donation towards this project to get a class set of headphones.

One of my class's favorite days is Thursday, and that is because it is store day. They save up, and then they can buy so many things. They also love that there are smaller items that they can get. \r\nThis has been a great way for my students to learn to save the tickets they earn. It also helps them to learn to want to do good in school so they can get more tickets. This has promoted good behavior and a better understanding of what money represents for them.

Several of these programs are reading websites, where students have to read and record their reading to help them continue to improve and make gains on their academic goals. \r\n While we are usually given headphones to replace the broken ones from the year before, this year we didn't get any. The result was students trying to record their reading while other students were doing the same thing. It was ineffective and loud! \r\n Donating for headphones may seem a small thing, but it has made a big difference in our classroom! Students can more effectively record themselves without having to repeat so many times, the classroom is quieter, and it's helped reduce my stress level with a quieter classroom. \r\n I truly appreciate what you did to help us out!

Here are a few examples of how we are using the resources you have donated.\r\n\r\nIn our elementary PE classes, the speaker has been a game-changer. It allows students to clearly hear instructions, music cues, and activity changes—even in a noisy gym or outdoor space. This helps them stay on task, follow directions, and remain engaged. The finger exercise bands support fine motor development and grip strength, which are important not only for sports skills but also for overall physical development. The hula hoop storage keeps equipment organized and accessible, which teaches responsibility and maximizes time for movement and learning instead of cleanup.\r\n\r\nStudents are most excited about the speaker, which brings energy to class through music during warm-ups, dance routines, and movement games. It transforms regular activities into fun and dynamic experiences. The finger exercise bands are also a hit, offering a new kind of challenge that students enjoy during stations or hand-strengthening drills. Even the hula hoop storage has been a surprise favorite—students love being able to quickly grab and return equipment without hassle.\r\n\r\nSeveral students have shown a strong connection to these new tools. One student with motor coordination challenges uses the finger exercise bands daily and has made great strides in grip strength and confidence. Another student, previously shy during group activities, now looks forward to selecting music and leading warm-ups using the speaker. The new hula hoop storage has also encouraged students to take more responsibility for setup and cleanup, fostering independence and pride in maintaining their space.\r\n\r\nAgain, your generosity is much appreciated and we continue to look forward to using these resources to further student health and education.","fullyFundedDate":1758801161889,"projectUrl":"project/power-up-pe/9656490/","projectTitle":"Power Up P.E.","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Crandall","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7131294_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y224&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1693581333616","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7131294"},{"teacherId":8477395,"projectId":9565151,"letterContent":"Thank you for your donations and all the gifts that you are able to provide for us.
