They are beautiful and add a special touch to our writing.\r\nOur writing is such an important part of each and every day. \r\nWhen we saw the pencils and notebooks, we were VERY excited to begin our creative stories.\r\nThank you for blessing our classroom. \r\nWe are extremely grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1762267582849,"projectUrl":"project/motivated-writers/9863486/","projectTitle":"Motivated Writers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mahlandt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8975437"},{"teacherId":9702042,"projectId":8695429,"letterContent":"I hope this note finds you well. On behalf of my students and myself, I want to express our deepest gratitude for your generous contribution to our classroom materials. Thanks to your kindness, we've been able to provide our students with resources that have truly transformed their learning experience. \r\n\r\nThe excitement in the room was palpable when the materials first arrived. The students' eyes lit up with wonder as they unpacked the fidget toys, the letter backpack and the activity center, all that glitters. One student was able to use the letter backpack to help learn letters and sounds in a fun way. Watching his enthusiasm reinforced just how impactful your support has been. \r\n\r\nSince receiving the materials, we've already completed [specific classroom project, e.g., \"a hands-on STEM activity where students designed and built model bridges\" or \"a reading challenge with the new books where every student picked a story to share\"]. These resources have made learning tangible, engaging, and meaningful. For example, during [specific moment], [describe student engagement or achievement, e.g., \"a quiet student confidently presented their project to the class\"]. Moments like these are priceless and wouldn't have been possible without your support. \r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we're using these materials to [describe next steps, e.g., \"dive deeper into engineering concepts with a new project or expand our exploration of storytelling through group reading activities\"]. Your contribution has set the foundation for ongoing learning and creativity, and we can't wait to see where it leads us next. \r\n\r\nThank you once again for believing in our classroom and for helping us create a place where curiosity and discovery thrive. Your generosity has not only provided tools but has also given my students the message that their learning and dreams matter. \r\n\r\nWith heartfelt appreciation, \r\nAngie Carpenter and Class \r\nMiddle School MDS Teacher\r\nLincoln Middle School","fullyFundedDate":1731939723082,"projectUrl":"project/activate-learning-for-all-students-in-th/8695429/","projectTitle":"Activate Learning for All Students in the Multiple Disabilities Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Carpenter","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9702042"},{"teacherId":8975437,"projectId":8971190,"letterContent":"We just received our classroom materials and we are absolutely thrilled!!

I had to set up a rotation so that they all were given a chance to sit in it. I am using the stickers that I ordered as incentives for the extra reading that they are doing. The binders and label maker are being used for my organization of the 3 different grade levels in which I instruct. They were also excited to see the various colored paper that they are able to use to complete projects. \r\n\r\n As far as the tissues and cleaning supplies, they are always an essential need for schools as the students go through so many tissue in a school year. The cleaning supplies work much better to disinfect then the supplies we are given at the beginning of the school year.\r\n\r\nThanks again for your donations.
