The iPad has opened up new opportunities for my multilingual learners and students with learning disabilities to engage with reading and writing in ways that feel fun, accessible, and empowering.\r\nThe healthy snacks have made a bigger difference than I ever expected. Students are more focused, comfortable, and ready to learn. It's amazing how something so simple can create such a positive and caring environment. The translator has helped break down language barriers, making it easier for students to communicate and for families to feel included in their child's progress. And the fidgets have provided just the right amount of sensory support, helping students stay calm and engaged during small-group literacy lessons.\r\nThanks to this project, my classroom feels more inclusive, supportive, and full of joy. My students are not only building stronger literacy skills , they're discovering their voices and realizing that their ideas matter. This project didn't just provide tools; it gave my students confidence, connection, and a renewed love for learning.","fullyFundedDate":1760826528339,"projectUrl":"project/voices-through-literacy-mission-to-su/9838469/","projectTitle":"Voices Through Literacy: Mission to Support Language and Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wright","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10316021_orig.jpg?crop=360,360,x0,y140&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1760639560212","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10316021"},{"teacherId":7289774,"projectId":9159448,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of this project.
