Because of you support and generosity, our team has been able to stay better organized and on point. The white board calendars and all the tools and implements that go with them have been especially helpful in the planning of meetings without overlap.\r\nCommunication is important, so the stamp for envelopes has made it easier to quickly address envelopes to get documents where they need to be. And anyone who has worked in a middle school knows how funky it can get.

Your support has significantly impacted our students' learning experience and their enthusiasm for music production. The integration of technology in our music production classroom has been a game-changer for our students. With the new desks and sound panels, we have created an environment that mirrors professional music studios. This new setup encourages students to immerse themselves in the learning process.\r\nAccess to this technology allows our students to explore music production software, develop their technical skills, and engage in hands-on learning. They are able to record, edit, and produce their own music tracks, which fosters creativity and critical thinking. The ability to collaborate on projects using digital tools has also improved their teamwork and communication skills.\r\nThank you for being a vital part of our community and for helping us create a brighter future for our students.","fullyFundedDate":1760693643021,"projectUrl":"project/middle-school-music-producers/9771806/","projectTitle":"Middle School Music Producers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jones","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5005153_orig.jpg?crop=1008,1008,x0,y30&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1708100990000","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/dramarobot"},{"teacherId":5005153,"projectId":9778931,"letterContent":"Thank you for your support in funding our \"Creative Clutter\" project!

The new resources have truly transformed our classroom experience. When my students first saw the Magnetic Atom Model Set, their eyes lit up. They couldn't wait to start building atoms and exploring how protons, neutrons, and electrons fit together. One student even said, \"This is really helpful!\" It was such a great moment because they immediately connected hands on learning with real-world concepts.\r\n\r\nWe kicked off a project called \"Build an Atom Challenge\" where students work in teams to construct models of different elements and explain their properties. The magnetic pieces make it easy for them to visualize atomic structure, which is something that's hard to grasp from a textbook alone. The excitement was contagious, students were asking questions like, \"What happens if we add more neutrons?\" and \"Can we make an atom have different number of protons and neutrons?\"\r\n\r\nThe snacks and fidget toys have been a huge hit too! They've helped create a positive, focused environment during our longer lab sessions. The headphone covers and cleaning supplies ensure everything stays safe and sanitary, which is so important for hands on science.","fullyFundedDate":1758824901868,"projectUrl":"project/see-it-to-believe-it/9750372/","projectTitle":"See It to Believe It","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Nesbitt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp546507_orig.jpg?crop=469,469,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1596678893273","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/546507"},{"teacherId":10164489,"projectId":9565156,"letterContent":"I would like to share with immense gratitude, all of my appreciation for your gift towards my class.

My students have reached out to me after class saying that they feel rewarded for their efforts in class and get even more excited to tell me about their progress on different assignments and math related activities ever since the project's commencement. \r\n\r\nIn an effort towards promoting a sense of recognition in the classroom, students were provided with the opportunity to win a reward provided from the project based on what they had accomplished academically in class. By allowing students to have a sense of choice in how they are rewarded, it has helped students feel that they are not receiving a generic reward for their hard work, but something they can genuinely appreciate. Your support has helped make a difference in student engagement in their math class.

The sharpeners have been a game-changer—no more waiting in line or losing momentum during writing time!\r\n\r\nCurrently, we've launched a new module centered around *The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind*.
