Our school and the horticulture club are so excited to have our project fully funded. We have built our tortoise table from scratch and we have received a lot of our supplies for our rescue tortoise and the indoor hydroponics systems we will use to grow his food during the winter months. This project will reach so many students (and staff!) at our school\r\n\r\nWe are adopting a rescue tortoise from Christina's Reptile and Animal Sanctuary in Pennsylvania. We will be growing his food indoors/outdoors and it will be a great learning experience for my self contained special education class with SEL and STEM concepts. Our entire school community has boosted morale from this project. It means so much to be able to provide this opportunity to our students.\r\n\r\nThank you again for making our dreams a reality!","fullyFundedDate":1762445536517,"projectUrl":"project/torticulture-in-the-library/9832592/","projectTitle":"Torticulture in the Library!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Soper","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4046274_orig.jpg?crop=1440,1440,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1745935275570","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/soper"},{"teacherId":9086443,"projectId":9278930,"letterContent":"When my students walked into the classroom and saw the brand-new whiteboard and bookshelves, their faces immediately lit up! The whiteboard has quickly become the centerpiece of our lessons — it's where we brainstorm ideas, map out themes in our novels, and track class goals together. Students love coming up to the board to share their thinking, and it's made our discussions much more interactive and collaborative.\r\n\r\nThe addition of the new bookshelves has completely transformed our reading corner. Students have been helping organize our classroom library, taking pride in labeling genres and recommending books to one another. They're especially excited about the rotating bookshelf, which will soon hold a brand-new collection of young adult novels — they keep asking when the new books will arrive! Many have already started making wish lists of titles they hope to read and can't wait to dive into.\r\n\r\nNext, my students will be launching independent reading projects, where they'll choose books that interest them, set reading goals, and create reflections and book talks to share with their peers. Thanks to your generous support, our classroom is becoming a vibrant community of readers and thinkers. We are so grateful for your kindness — it has made a real difference in making our learning space more engaging, inspiring, and student-centered.","fullyFundedDate":1746786433939,"projectUrl":"project/a-place-for-every-book-a-board-for-ever/9278930/","projectTitle":"A Place for Every Book, A Board for Every Thought","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Milkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9086443_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1735654508441","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-milkins"},{"teacherId":4046274,"projectId":9295084,"letterContent":"We have built and set up our garden beds with landscaping fabric, packed our garden cart, and built our pumpkin arches.

The digital wall clock has been a total game changer — students can easily keep track of time during activities and transitions, which has helped them become more independent and responsible. My personal favorite addition has been the remote control outlets! They've made it so simple to control our lighting and electronics, creating a calm and focused atmosphere with just the press of a button. The book cart has also been a wonderful organizational tool, helping keep our resources neat and accessible for both me and my students.\r\n\r\nThe Chromebook chargers have made a big difference in keeping our technology running smoothly — no more interruptions or dead devices during lessons! And the happy birthday pencils and squishy toys have become a sweet new tradition in our classroom. Each time a student celebrates a birthday, they get to choose a pencil and a squish toy, which has made those little moments feel extra special and joyful.","fullyFundedDate":1746785264890,"projectUrl":"project/enhancing-our-classroom-organization-e/9171867/","projectTitle":"Enhancing Our Classroom: Organization, Engagement & Celebration!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Milkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9086443_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1735654508441","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-milkins"},{"teacherId":9086443,"projectId":9029361,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for helping me bring Romeo and Juliet into the hands—and hearts—of my students. Because of your generous support, we now have a full class set of No Fear Shakespeare: Romeo and Juliet, which has made an enormous difference in how my students connect with and understand this classic text.\r\n\r\nHaving access to side-by-side modern translations has given my students the confidence to engage with Shakespeare's language in a way that feels accessible, not intimidating. We've had meaningful discussions about love, loyalty, conflict, and consequence—and students who were once hesitant to read aloud are now volunteering to take on roles. The text has come alive in our classroom, and students are discovering that Shakespeare isn't just for scholars—it's for them.\r\n\r\nYour donation didn't just provide books; it opened the door to deeper comprehension, richer conversations, and a greater sense of ownership over their learning.
