The back-to-school supplies you provided quickly became part of our daily rhythm. Students used the crayons, markers, and colored pencils during reading responses, science diagrams, and our weekly writing prompts. One moment that stood out happened during our first \"visual thinking\" lesson of the year. Students spread out with their new materials, experimenting with color to explain their understanding of a text, and the room shifted into that focused, excited energy teachers hope for.\r\n\r\nTheir reaction when the supplies arrived was exactly what you would expect from a group of ten- and eleven-year-olds starting a new year. First came the wide-eyed surprise of \"wait...these are for us?\" followed by a level of careful organizing that made me pause. Then the reality set in. These were not temporary, shared scraps. These were real tools they could rely on. That shift changed how seriously they approached their work.\r\n\r\nYour contribution did more than stock a shelf. It raised the baseline for what students could do. As we moved into our first major writing and research units, the supplies supported planning, drafting, annotating, and creating the visual models that accompanied their writing. Students built stamina, independence, and pride in their work, and they did it with consistent access to the materials that supported their learning.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students a strong and confident start to the year. Your generosity made an immediate difference when the supplies reached their desks, and it continued to influence the quality of their work every day.","fullyFundedDate":1620269531102,"projectUrl":"project/back-to-basics/5551749/","projectTitle":"Back to Basics","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Dimas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3743102_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755751985539","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3743102"},{"teacherId":5669157,"projectId":9319496,"letterContent":"I'm writing to express my sincere gratitude for your generous support of our first-grade classroom.
