My students are still collecting toiletries to add to the period panty project, this has become an ongoing project that our group is taking on. The kids voted and decided to add additional toiletry items and put it in a cute cosmetic bag. That way when the child is in need, they will be able to pick out their bag and it will not feel like a \"charity\" to them. \r\n\r\nMy students have learned so much in the sense of what some people have & how it is easy to not think about others that may not have those much needed items. This project has really taken off and expanded their thinking. It is easy to not think about what you don't see; as the saying goes, \"out of sight, out of mind\". They have fortunately never been in a situation where they didn't have access to these very important essentials.\r\n\r\nSo, thank you for allowing them to see the world in a new perspective.

Your generosity has made a big difference in how I plan, teach, and support my second graders every single day.\r\n\r\nWe've been using the resources across all subjects—especially in reading and math centers. One moment that really stood out was during our small group reading rotations. I introduced a phonics game from the membership that focused on blends and digraphs. My students were so engaged—they thought it was just a fun game, but little did they know how much they were learning! One of my students, who usually hesitates to participate, shouted, \"I got it right again!\" with the biggest smile. That confidence boost was everything.\r\n\r\nWhen I first shared the colorful centers, interactive notebooks, and digital slides, the excitement was real—kids were pointing, gasping, and asking if we could start right now. It was like Christmas morning in our classroom!\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, I feel more organized and less stressed because I don't have to scramble to create everything from scratch. I have access to standards-based, engaging, and differentiated materials at my fingertips, which means I can spend more time teaching and less time planning.\r\n\r\nNext up, we're diving into a writing unit using the Lucky Little Learners writing prompts and anchor charts.
