Your generosity has made a meaningful impact on my students' learning each and every day.\r\n\r\nThe whiteboards have become an essential tool during small group intervention. Students use them to practice writing letters that correspond to sounds they hear, helping strengthen their phonics and decoding skills in an engaging, hands-on way. The immediate feedback and active participation have increased student confidence and participation during lessons.\r\n\r\nThe rolling laptop cart has greatly improved the efficiency of our classroom environment. As students collaborate and work together, I am able to move easily around the room to monitor progress, conference with students, and quickly take notes on student understanding and growth. This mobility has helped maximize instructional time and improve classroom management during technology-based activities.\r\n\r\nThe pocket chart has also been an incredible resource during word study lessons. Students use it while blending, segmenting, adding, and deleting sounds to build and manipulate words. Having a visual and interactive way to practice phonemic awareness has strengthened foundational reading skills and increased student engagement.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students have access to tools that support active learning, collaboration, and academic growth. Thank you for investing in our classroom and helping create meaningful learning experiences for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1769864583508,"projectUrl":"project/extra-supply-request/10057647/","projectTitle":"Extra Supply Request","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lewis","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10069395_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1769199425509","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10069395"},{"teacherId":9378946,"projectId":10271150,"letterContent":"These new books have helped create a classroom where reading feels exciting, collaborative, and accessible for all students. In our classroom, reading looks like students working together in small groups, practicing fluency with partners, and independently choosing books that help them feel confident and successful as readers.\r\n\r\nThe books support important literacy skills such as fluency, comprehension, vocabulary, and discussing texts with classmates. The bilingual books have been especially meaningful for my multilingual learners because they help students connect their home language with their learning at school while feeling represented and included.\r\n\r\nSome students who were previously hesitant readers are now excited to participate during reading time and eager to continue reading throughout the day. Watching my students build confidence and develop a stronger love for reading has been incredibly rewarding.","fullyFundedDate":1778204191015,"projectUrl":"project/books-that-build-readers/10271150/","projectTitle":"Books That BUILD Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Franzelas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9378946_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y64&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1776005323610","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/franzelas"},{"teacherId":9378946,"projectId":10189518,"letterContent":"The impact of these donations is seen in every part of our school day. With access to pencils, markers, and other essential supplies, students are able to fully participate in lessons without interruptions or limitations. They can focus on learning instead of worrying about whether they have the tools they need.\r\n\r\nThese materials support both academic growth and creativity. Students are more confident when writing, solving problems, and sharing their ideas. They are also more willing to take risks and engage in their work when they feel prepared and supported.\r\n\r\nHaving enough supplies for everyone also creates a stronger sense of equity in the classroom. Every student has what they need at their fingertips, which helps them feel included, capable, and ready to learn. Overall, these simple but important tools help create a smooth, productive learning environment where students can truly succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1777567647471,"projectUrl":"project/supplies-that-make-learning-stick/10189518/","projectTitle":"Supplies That Make Learning Stick","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Franzelas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9378946_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y64&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1776005323610","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/franzelas"},{"teacherId":9803830,"projectId":9797250,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation and support for my classroom! My students have continually played with these games! We often have to create a schedule for the break the ice game so the students can make sure everyone gets a turn. These games have taught them patience, resilience, and advocation that they definitely needed more practice in.

Your generosity has made a meaningful impact on my students' learning each and every day.\r\n\r\nIn our small classroom, every resource and every inch of space matters. The extra whiteboard has helped create additional visual learning space for students, allowing us to display important skills, model strategies, and work through problems together more effectively. It has become an essential part of daily instruction and small group learning.\r\n\r\nAlong with the whiteboard, the Expo markers have been incredibly valuable. Teachers can truly never have enough dry erase markers, especially in an active classroom where students are constantly practicing and engaging with lessons. The plastic marker holder has helped keep materials organized and easily accessible, making transitions smoother and maximizing instructional time.\r\n\r\nThe magnets have also been extremely useful for hanging anchor charts that we create together during lessons. Being able to display and reference student thinking and classroom strategies has strengthened understanding and provided visual support throughout the day.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, the dry erase markers have allowed students to actively participate when coming to the board to solve problems, write sounds and words, and share their thinking with classmates. These hands-on opportunities increase engagement, confidence, and collaboration among students.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students have access to organized, interactive, and meaningful learning tools that support their academic growth every day.
