The bean bags have become a favorite spot for students during independent work time, small-group discussions, and even quiet reflection time. Our new mobile whiteboard has also been a game changer, students use it during group work, presentations, and interactive review sessions, allowing learning to happen anywhere in the room. Even the snacks and essential classroom supplies have made a noticeable difference, ensuring that students can stay focused, comfortable, and prepared throughout the day.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first walked in and saw the bean bags and new whiteboard, their faces absolutely lit up. They were excited to choose their new flexible seating spots, and many immediately asked, \"Can we sit here during independent work time today?\" The snacks have also been greatly appreciated, especially by students who need a little boost to help them stay engaged. These seemingly small additions made my classroom feel more welcoming, supportive, and student-centered and something they noticed right away.\r\n\r\nAs we continue with our current lessons and upcoming projects, these resources will be used daily. Your generosity has helped create a classroom environment where students feel comfortable, motivated, and ready to learn. Thank you for giving them the tools and space they need to thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1757961560716,"projectUrl":"project/from-curiosity-to-confidence-supporting/9701235/","projectTitle":"From Curiosity to Confidence: Supporting Science Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Taylor Dural","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8978458_orig.jpg?crop=1290,1290,x0,y270&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753302473664","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8978458"},{"teacherId":6750283,"projectId":9772079,"letterContent":"Please accept my deepest gratitude for your generous support of my Spanish 2 classroom project. The materials you provided—specifically the Expo markers, whiteboards, and a wealth of vibrant colored supplies—have been far more than just classroom tools; they have become the catalyst for confidence and creative expression for my students.\r\n\r\nAs you know, my students are an incredible group of learners. What I love most is their growing confidence, their willingness to take risks with a new language, and their genuine desire to connect with other cultures. Learning a language is abstract, but your gift has made it tangible, engaging multiple senses and learning styles, and fundamentally changing how we approach Spanish.\r\n\r\nWe are using color strategically to enhance memory and organization. For instance, we now use blue to color-code all irregular preterite verbs and red for direct object pronouns. Research shows that this visual organization dramatically improves attention and retention. But what truly excites them is the creative expression. Their Spanish 2 projects, whether they are creating cultural presentations en español, are now vibrant, visually engaging, and more memorable for their peers. They are using color to connect language to emotion and add a deeper layer of linguistic and cultural nuance to their stories.","fullyFundedDate":1759254362725,"projectUrl":"project/supporting-literacy-in-spanish-2/9772079/","projectTitle":"Supporting Literacy in Spanish 2","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Robinson Ouellet-Beaucaire","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6750283_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1708150454214","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6750283"},{"teacherId":10029597,"projectId":9337912,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredible generosity and support of our Algebra 1 classroom project. Your donations allowed us to introduce innovative, kinesthetic learning opportunities that have profoundly impacted my students' understanding of spatial relationships and geometric principles. We envisioned using panel mats to help students embody concepts like acute, obtuse, and right angles through movement, laying a crucial foundation for their future geometry courses. While the exact items we received—a Stunt Trainer and a Pit Pillow Mat—differed from the original request, they unlocked an even more creative and engaging path to success than we could have imagined.\r\n\r\nThe unique equipment you provided has transformed abstract definitions into active exploration. Using the Stunt Trainer, students are literally practicing balance and finding their \"center,\" which we translate into understanding concepts like lines of symmetry and midpoints in a real-world, tangible way. The Pit Pillow Mat offers a safe, fun space for movement that encourages students to physically model angle measures and spatial coordinates, turning what could be rote memorization into joyful discovery. This early, hands-on engagement with geometric ideas has drastically increased their familiarity and confidence, helping to demystify a subject that many students find intimidating.\r\n\r\nYour investment has moved beyond simple textbook learning to foster a deep, embodied understanding of math. By connecting algebraic concepts to physical movement and spatial reasoning, we are not just teaching geometry early; we are equipping these students with a stronger intuitive grasp of spatial relationships and problem-solving skills that will enhance their comprehension in all subsequent mathematics courses. Thank you for believing in the power of innovative teaching and for giving my students the tools to achieve greater academic success.","fullyFundedDate":1755712998022,"projectUrl":"project/identifying-angles/9337912/","projectTitle":"Identifying Angles","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cardona","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10029597"},{"teacherId":7934872,"projectId":9776680,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our class!\r\n\r\nThe independent reading books, chosen specifically to match student interests, have been a huge hit.

My students appreciated having access to a variety of snacks, especially those who weren't able to bring lunch to school that day or had to wait for a substantial meal until after school. Beyond that, I was able to use the funds for essential classroom supplies. Dry-erase markers are a must, and I'm glad I was able to obtain the Crayola brand of dry-erase markers, which are not readily available in-store here. They last longer and the students love the vibrant colors. The variety of colors also helps to enhance learning when we use the mini whiteboards, and students are able to organize their writing. Last but not least, we are excited to have been able to add more crêpe makers to the classroom for our crêpe days in French class. These help students to be engaged in crêpe day, learning the process of making and assembling crêpes while also laughing at their mistakes, or celebrating their successes, which are both integral parts of the learning process.","fullyFundedDate":1729212929879,"projectUrl":"project/brain-fuel/8879441/","projectTitle":"Brain Fuel!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Colis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9378499"},{"teacherId":202468,"projectId":9161632,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation of a printer for my classroom.

We're so thrilled you helped us get this done. Setting up a new classroom is always an adventure, and honestly, we had a few hiccups getting everything organized, even with the new cabinet! We quickly realized we were missing essential smaller items to make the system perfect, like matching organizational bins for the shelves and enough colored pencils for all the new stations. That's why we were so grateful when donors chose to refund $70, which we immediately used to grab those bins, pencils, and some much-needed cleaning supplies.\r\n\r\nThe best part is how much more independent the students have become. For example, during our last creative free-choice time, we needed materials for a project. Before the cabinet, I'd have to spend five minutes digging through bins, which wasted our time. Now, the students can independently and efficiently find everything from colored pencils to other art supplies. This simple organization has really empowered them. They take so much pride in finding their materials quickly, using them responsibly, and putting them back in the right spot. That increased accountability has given us back crucial learning minutes every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1754269599701,"projectUrl":"project/creating-an-organized-space/9386406/","projectTitle":"Creating an Organized Space","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. K.
