The impact that your donation has made on us has made such an impact on the use of technology in my classroom. We have used the 3D printer to plan items we would like to make and then learned how to use the technology to create those items. Our first project was designed to support our Weather Science unit. We chose an animal as a class that we would like to use to create a shelter for. We then had to create a shelter that would help keep our 3D printed animal safe. \r\nMy students are so excited to use a 3D printer which they have seen at home and other places but never had to chance to use independently. \r\nPlease know that your donation will be used for many years to come.","fullyFundedDate":1763568726997,"projectUrl":"project/flashforge-printing-in-kindergarten/9705795/","projectTitle":"Flashforge Printing in Kindergarten","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Nunez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2441181_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1465098675855","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2441181"},{"teacherId":5656803,"projectId":9544561,"letterContent":"The excitement on my students faces as I revealed the new books to add to our classroom library was pure joy.

The EcoTank Inkjet Printer/copier does it all. It makes copies. It prints in both color and black and white. The refillable tanks are cost-effective and convenient. Plus, they are ridiculously easy to refill. The ink refills have allowed me to keep the ink tanks full so I can print at any time. No need to order new printer cartridges.\r\nI have been able to print students' stories to post in the classroom, flyers to send home to parents, and math tests. I made copies of the quiz when I was one short. The copies are crisp, clear, and quick. The students can print from their Chromebooks. They can color-code their writing to see what they need to add and remove in their writing. This machine has improved my classroom life by a thousand. \r\nThank you so much for your generous donation to purchase the EcoTank Printer.","fullyFundedDate":1746548776306,"projectUrl":"project/in-living-color/9304493/","projectTitle":"In Living Color","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lowdermilk","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp598564_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1543086745237","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/tecklalowdermilk"},{"teacherId":598564,"projectId":9623225,"letterContent":"Who knew 23 students taking online assessments would be so LOUD?
