The manipulatives and visual supports help make math concepts clear and accessible, allowing students to explore, explain their thinking, and build understanding across languages.\r\n\r\nThese resources continue to make math tangible, engaging, and confidence-building for my students.

This technology has empowered students to plan, record, edit, and share their own podcasts, giving them hands-on experience with digital storytelling.\r\n\r\nThrough podcasting, students are developing skills in writing, speaking, collaboration, and critical thinking. They're learning how to structure interviews, build compelling narratives, and use editing tools to enhance their audio projects.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for students has been finding their voices—literally and creatively. Whether it's sharing personal stories, exploring local issues, or interviewing guests, they've loved having a platform to express themselves and be heard by a real audience.","fullyFundedDate":1671139311320,"projectUrl":"project/media-arts-project/6944725/","projectTitle":"Media Arts Project","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Soccoa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4157909"},{"teacherId":9220706,"projectId":7730533,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity!The students were extremely happy and grateful for all of the supplies and equipment we have received, thanks to you all.
