These devices have transformed the way we learn in our 8th grade Algebra classroom. Students now have immediate access to interactive math apps, digital practice tools, and research resources that help them deepen their understanding and build confidence in their skills.\r\n\r\nThe tablets have especially helped students who benefit from visual models and interactive practice. Instead of waiting for one-on-one support, they can use the technology to explore step-by-step explanations, receive instant feedback, and collaborate with their peers. One student in particular, who often struggled to stay engaged, has become a leader in using the new technology to guide classmates through assignments.\r\n\r\nYour support has not only given us tools for learning but also a sense of excitement and empowerment. My students see that others believe in their potential, and that motivates them to strive for excellence every day.

After I explained---our \"wish list\" was funded and we would receive needed materials, the Brown Bears were very excited! As our packages arrived and I explain who purchased them, the students wanted to open the boxes immediately! However, I did not open the first two packages, the following day we played a guessing game, I shook the boxes and asked what do you think is inside? \r\n\r\nAfter guessing, I displayed the materials and asked the \"Brown Bears\" how would the materials be used and the responses were correct. They were most excited about receiving the headphones - needed while working on Chrome books: dry-erase markers - used while writing white board assignments and snacks as an afternoon incentive. The students really appreciated using the headphones as they were able to concentrate on their assignments.","fullyFundedDate":1740148136866,"projectUrl":"project/cleaning-leads-to-learning-to-writing-to/9090109/","projectTitle":"Cleaning leads to Learning to Writing to Snacking to Listening","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gaines","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9912048_orig.jpg?crop=640,640,x281,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752800970225","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9912048"},{"teacherId":7586009,"projectId":9093243,"letterContent":"I am writing to extend my heartfelt thanks for your generous support of my DonorsChoose project, \"Celebrating Cultures: Diverse Learning for Young Minds\".

These tools have already made a significant impact in the way I support students' social-emotional development. In a school where many students face daily challenges beyond academics, having access to this technology has allowed me to reach them in more engaging, personalized, and effective ways.\r\n\r\nStudents are especially excited about using the iPads during individual and small group sessions. Whether they're using drawing apps to express emotions, participating in digital calming activities, or engaging in interactive SEL (Social Emotional Learning) lessons, the iPads have become a safe and creative outlet. The Apple Pencils have added a fun and hands-on layer—students love sketching out their feelings, journaling digitally, or even creating vision boards that help them set goals and build confidence. One student who used to struggle with opening up has started drawing out his feelings on the iPad with ease, giving us a new way to communicate and build trust.\r\n\r\nYour donation has helped turn counseling sessions into spaces of creativity, healing, and hope.
