This project wasn't just for my class; it was for the whole 6th grade, approximately 125 students. The supplies were used to print, laminate, and assemble 30 board games and 102 decks of cards that can be used for math interventions and reteaching with all 6th-grade students. \r\n\r\nStudents have been enjoying the games and activities. It gets them away from the hum-drum worksheets. It gives them a chance to work together, help each other understand the concepts better, and learn through teaching. Students have been given the rule that if someone gets an answer wrong, they have to figure out the answer together before they can move on. Through this method, we have all seen massive growth in our students problem solving, critical thinking, and social-emotional communication. It's no longer just about the math. It's about ensuring that all their classmates are productive and understand the concepts together.","fullyFundedDate":1764427002614,"projectUrl":"project/lets-play-old-school/9657557/","projectTitle":"Let's Play...

Students were able to stay focused, energized, and ready to participate throughout the day. Providing snacks also supported students who may not always have access to food between meals, helping create a comfortable and supportive classroom environment.\r\n\r\nOverall, these resources contributed to a more interactive classroom where students felt prepared, motivated, and ready to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1769207264409,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-learning-expo-markers-brain-b/10036313/","projectTitle":"Fueling Learning: Expo Markers & Brain-Boosting Snacks for My Students","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Maglangit","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10299101"},{"teacherId":10161630,"projectId":10068320,"letterContent":"Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting our Indoor Campout Adventures and Gifts from the Heart project.

For many of our students, these tents provide a sense of safety and comfort, helping them feel included and at ease. The indoor s'mores makers and campfire decorations will bring the magic of a real campout into our classroom, turning learning into a shared, memorable experience filled with laughter and togetherness.\r\n\r\nThis project will greatly improve our classroom environment by fostering community, strengthening social-emotional skills, and creating positive memories tied to school. The indoor campout encourages collaboration, imagination, and belonging especially important for students who benefit from structured yet comforting experiences. It shows them that school can be a place of warmth, creativity, and heart.\r\n\r\nAs we look forward to completing this project in the spring, our students can hardly wait to experience the campout you made possible.

Because of you, our classroom is now filled not only with snacks, but with comfort, joy, and a sense of belonging for every student.\r\n\r\nThe variety of snacks you provided crackers, cereal bars, fruit snacks, pastries, and other individually wrapped items has made a meaningful difference in our daily classroom life. For some students, these snacks help them stay focused and energized throughout the school day. For others, they provide reassurance and comfort, especially on days when learning feels overwhelming or when food insecurity might otherwise distract them from participating fully.\r\n\r\nHaving a wide range of snacks allows us to be inclusive and mindful of different preferences and needs. Students feel seen and cared for when they are offered something familiar and comforting. Simple moments like snack time have turned into opportunities for connection, calm conversations, and emotional regulation. The addition of storage and snack bags has also helped us keep everything organized and accessible, making distribution smooth and dignified for students.\r\n\r\nThis project has improved our classroom environment by creating a space where students know their basic needs matter. When students feel cared for, they are more willing to engage, take risks in learning, and support one another. Your kindness has helped us build a classroom culture rooted in compassion, equity, and respect.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our students and for showing them that they are valued.

The snack variety packs and assorted candy mix are being used to support students who need an extra boost during long learning blocks, celebrate growth, and reinforce positive behavior. The neon stickers have quickly become a favorite reward; students proudly place them on folders or water bottles after meeting goals, which has strengthened motivation and classroom morale.\r\n\r\nWe've also begun using the sticker paper and label sheets to create custom organization labels, student name tags, learning materials, and classroom charts. Students have even helped design some of the labels, which gives them ownership over their space and builds responsibility.\r\n\r\nThe power strip charging tower has allowed us to safely charge devices for lessons and testing without clutter, while the water dispenser has been a game-changer—students can stay hydrated throughout the day, which supports focus, energy, and overall well-being.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, students will continue using these resources during literacy rotations, collaborative projects, and goal-setting activities. The organized environment and accessible supplies make it easier for them to work together, stay focused, and take pride in their classroom.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, our room now feels more welcoming, efficient, and joyful—a place where students feel cared for and motivated to do their very best.
