These materials have been such a big help in our classroom. My students have been using the three-hole punch to organize their assignments in their binders and portfolios, making it easier for them to keep their work neat and in one place. The electric pencil sharpener has also been working amazingly well, keeping their pencils sharpened and ready whenever they need them. It is such a relief to have these supplies available for our daily classroom activities!\r\n\r\nI am also happy to see my students using these materials in their learning projects, including our \"Who I Am\" self-portraits, where they shared their interests, strengths, and dreams through art and writing. Having the right supplies helps them focus on their work, express their creativity, and take pride in what they accomplish. These may be simple tools, but they make a real difference in our everyday learning. Thank you for supporting my students and helping make our classroom a better place to learn and grow. Your kindness means so much to us, and may God bless you beyond measure for your generous hearts!","fullyFundedDate":1774027578308,"projectUrl":"project/tools-to-learn-create-and-grow-togethe/9854717/","projectTitle":"Tools to Learn, Create, and Grow Together","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Sai","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9158151_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691248841671","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/cresaida-japson"},{"teacherId":9158151,"projectId":9962951,"letterContent":"This project has made a meaningful difference in my classroom by helping students stay focused, energized, and engaged after a full day of learning. During after-school time, students use the snacks while finishing assignments, asking questions, getting extra help, and working on projects. I have seen students choose to stay longer because they know they have a welcoming space where they can learn and feel supported. \r\n\r\nMy students were always excited and grateful when snacks were available. Something as simple as choosing a granola bar, cookie, or cracker helped them feel cared for and gave them the extra energy to keep going. \r\n\r\nMoving forward, my students will continue using our after-school time to complete unfinished work, get additional support, and explore new ideas and projects. These snacks will help make that time more positive, comfortable, and encouraging as they continue learning and growing.","fullyFundedDate":1775600601838,"projectUrl":"project/keeping-learning-going-with-healthy-snac/9962951/","projectTitle":"Keeping Learning Going with Healthy Snacks","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Sai","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9158151_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691248841671","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/cresaida-japson"},{"teacherId":10232606,"projectId":9692572,"letterContent":"This project has made a meaningful difference for our students at Nightmute School.

I wanted to reach out and let you know how grateful my students were to work with the supplies you donated. We started by learning the basic ideas of photography with the cyanotypes and the chemical process that goes into it. Students had to think about composition, exposure times, and the challenges of taking photos in the cold. \r\n\r\nFrom there we moved onto the pinhole cameras to work on focusing. We compared the eye parts to those of cameras and talked about how images are flipped for us as well. Students had a great time playing with brightness, focus, and the difficulties of early photography. \r\n\r\nFrom there students worked to plan portraits for each other as if they were doing a professional shoot. Each student took a photo of their friend and then we printed out the photos on large pieces of paper to take home. Throughout the entire project students were engaged, excited, and appreciative.","fullyFundedDate":1764777677051,"projectUrl":"project/nightmute-burgeoning-photographers/9926167/","projectTitle":"Nightmute Burgeoning Photographers","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Nelson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9447394_orig.jpg?crop=1895,1895,x342,y1199&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1706147453865","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9447394"},{"teacherId":9158151,"projectId":9792650,"letterContent":"Thank you for making hands-on STEM learning possible for our students in remote Nightmute, Alaska.

In our small village, resources are limited, so your generosity made a huge difference for my students. \r\n\r\nMy students brought Atomic Motion: A STEAM Integration Project to life using stop-motion animation. Working in pairs and small groups, students turned abstract ideas about atoms into creative animations. They explored concepts like Neutral Balance, Identity Shift, Isotopes, the Empty Atom, and Valence Bonds, carefully planning each scene and movement to make complex science ideas clear. It was amazing to watch their ideas come alive, and they were so proud to show their work to the class. \r\n\r\nThe Brother color printer has also been a big help for everyday learning. Printing worksheets, diagrams, and other classroom materials in color made lessons more engaging and easier to understand. \r\n\r\nBecause of your support, my students were able to combine science and art, work together, and take pride in seeing their learning come to life.

You have helped in the effort toward expanding their educational horizons from today onward toward potentially productive outcomes later in their lives. For every week, each student had encountered a few blank sheets or printed paper in which they had to fill and express their understanding, which included their skill to practice by the stroke of their pencil, crayon, marker, or even their paintbrush.\r\n\r\nFor the most part, behind every letter, word, and picture, there was a plethora of dialogue. Most of what was written on each blank sheet of paper was an encouragement of practicing their handwriting skills, hand-eye coordination, my guidance toward correct usage and wording of what they were supposed to learn, occasionally having them help spell the words out for me, and recognition of the world around them, including their reading and arithmetic. I could see the growth in their abilities to present their pieces, which also augments their abilities during standardized testing. The students were fortunate enough to present their class work at home to their families, and I feel that their families appreciate the outcomes as well.\r\n\r\nMost students rarely travel outside Anchorage, much less, the state. We live in a fairly quiet community, isolated from the road system, and much of the knowledge of the outside world come from watching YouTube videos, TikTok, etc., but I see that they need formal ways of seeing and expressing the world around them at their own ability and level. You had provided them with a simple necessity, a common and synonymous initial idea of the form of art and expression, the object described as the 8x11 1/2 product known as, \"paper.\" With all that hard work, I had decided they find an image online of their choice so that that could express their interest, something I could not do at the beginning of the year like I wanted. I sensed that each student had a smile on their face when I had given them a hard copy of their image they chose. These experiences are something you had helped us with, and we had decided to provide you with our thanksgiving. \"Quyana cakneq!\" in our Yup'ik language means, \"Thank you very much!\" So we will continue to strive onward, building our worlds so that we move toward a brighter future.","fullyFundedDate":1763609537088,"projectUrl":"project/academic-skills-concept-focus-is-importa/9766646/","projectTitle":"Academic Skills Concept Focus is Important!
