With these new resources, students are more motivated to participate, collaborate, and stay focused, which has had a noticeable impact on both their enthusiasm and overall learning experience.\r\nYour contribution has also helped me better scaffold my lessons to meet the diverse needs of my students.

The colored paper was a big hit with students as they called out what color would be best for a number, \"Twelves should be red because they are so hard!\" We all had a great time deciding what colors belonged to what number. Students are definitely more engaged in using flash cards to help remember multiplication facts.\r\n The handwriting magnetic poster came in handy as we were able to practice letter placement, strokes, and penmanship with the whole group to do cursive. It makes teaching letter formation much better and more efficient. Most of us are still learning, but we're more enthusiastic to try now! \r\n We are going to use our colored flash cards for the rest of the school year and even keep them for fourth grade. Since students were able to choose the colors for the numbers it has now given me the idea of asking incoming third graders their color preferences so that they are more engaged in creating and using them. A student came up with the idea of using the scraps of colored paper in an art project for Earth Day as a recycling project.
