The paper, art supplies, and decorative materials you provided have given our students the tools to share their stories and honor their backgrounds in ways we never imagined possible.\r\n\r\nWhen the boxes of supplies first arrived, our students' excitement was contagious. They immediately began planning how to use the materials in social studies and beyond. Our students were able to put the materials to use right away. Projects like annotated colonial maps and the Declaration of OUR Independence were able to be taken to a new level. Students especially enjoyed using the Crayola Colors of the World colored pencils whenever drawing representations of themselves. \r\n\r\nStudent success on tests and quizzes has increased partly due to the availability of paper. Physical study guides and more visual aids have helped learning history come alive for my students. Your supplies will continue supporting new students as they join our classroom throughout the year, ensuring every child has the opportunity to share their story. Your incredible contribution has had a widespread, positive effect on the entire sixth-grade team and our students, and we can't thank you enough for making this possible.","fullyFundedDate":1756058288156,"projectUrl":"project/new-year-new-classroom-materials/9372332/","projectTitle":"New Year - New Classroom Materials!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gottilla","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9933948"},{"teacherId":4465174,"projectId":9407986,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support!

My students use them daily for crafts, projects, and writing center activities. They especially love having their own pair in fun colors - it makes even routine work feel exciting and personal. I've noticed how much more independent and engaged they are during hands-on tasks. \r\n\r\nOur next steps are to continue incorporating these supplies into more creative projects that build fine motor skills and writing confidence.
