We have already read and finished Wonder as a class. The kids loved having their own copies of the book as we read and we even got to watch part of the movie when we were done. The kids loved reading this book. It had great characters that the kids learned from. We had compassion for August and his struggles, loved seeing Jack Will grow and become confident in his decisions to be friends with August and learned about how we would want to be treated. \r\n\r\nAs for our seat sacks to keep us organized-we have definitely made good use of those. Our materials are not all over the ground anymore. We have more space and can find what we need in a more effective manner. We love being more organized!!","fullyFundedDate":1769126983383,"projectUrl":"project/help-us-thrive-with-supplies/10045932/","projectTitle":"Help Us Thrive With Supplies!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cleghorn","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7667663"},{"teacherId":5480794,"projectId":9992101,"letterContent":"Because of your generosity, our classroom has been completely transformed in the best way. The new supplies have allowed my students to engage in hands-on, meaningful learning experiences every single day. What may seem like \"simple supplies\" have made a huge difference in how my students learn, collaborate, and stay excited about coming to school.\r\n\r\nFrom the moment the materials arrived, the excitement was immediate. My students were eager to explore, create, and dive right into learning. I've already seen increased participation, more thoughtful discussions, and a boost in confidence—especially from students who sometimes hesitate to jump in. One of my favorite moments was watching students work together using the new resources, problem-solving and encouraging one another in a way that truly showed growth beyond academics.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, we're able to continue building on this momentum. These materials will support upcoming lessons and projects that promote creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. Your support didn't just provide supplies—it created opportunities, inspiration, and joy in our classroom.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for your kindness and belief in our students.

We've been using the whiteboards daily during reading and math lessons, and one standout moment was during a sight word review activity. Every student was actively participating, quickly writing and showing their answers, which allowed me to check for understanding in real time. It turned what used to be a quieter activity into something energetic and interactive.\r\nWhen the students first saw the new materials, their excitement was immediate. The whiteboards felt special to them, and the classroom rewards system quickly became a huge motivator. They were eager to earn rewards and took more ownership over their behavior and effort. The addition of passion project activities, especially the Legos, brought out their creativity in a whole new way. Students who are sometimes hesitant during academic tasks really shined when given the opportunity to build and create.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we're continuing to build on this momentum. Students will be using the whiteboards to plan and draft ideas for their passion projects, tying in writing and problem-solving skills. With the Legos, they'll begin working on small group challenges that encourage collaboration, communication, and critical thinking. The reward system will continue to support positive choices and perseverance as projects become more complex. These next steps will help students deepen both their academic skills and their confidence as learners.","fullyFundedDate":1769127543676,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-rewards-and-passion-projects/10046203/","projectTitle":"Classroom Rewards and Passion Projects","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rotta-Williams","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9370910"},{"teacherId":10403554,"projectId":10017036,"letterContent":"The resources and materials that were provided to my students have been extremely helpful in starting up my classroom.

Many of the items I chose provide privacy during health screenings.

Luckily, I have only used one splint, but it was priceless in providing stability and support of a broken arm.

Before these materials arrived, many students viewed writing as a chore, often struggling to fill half a page. Now, they are eager to dive into their \"Author Centers.\" The specialized paper and tools have helped them better organize their thoughts, and their illustrations have become much more detailed. We are using the journals to create a dictionary for important words to know how to spell. \r\n\r\n This project hasn't just given us supplies; it has fostered a genuine love for literacy that will stay with these students as they continue their journey through elementary school.
