The fun new case and higher-quality photo capabilities of the newest iPad takes wonderful photos. \r\n\r\nStudents photograph their artwork at the end of each project, so having enough iPads reduced wait time, and ensures that all students are able to photograph their finished work before it goes home, while wasting less class time altogether on simply wiaiting their turn and allowing them to either add more things to their finished artwork, letting them talk with classmates about their choices, or create something new and collaborative with their neighbors.\r\n\r\nThey also LOVE the fun rainbow case.

We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your support in providing tools for literacy in our kindergarten classroom. Your generous donations of magnetic letter boards and electronic notepads to support our kindergarten literacy program make the students excited to learn! As you look through the photos, you will see there are some pictures where students are in their pajamas, this was a party day and they still wanted to work on their word work! How amazing is that! These items also give us the option of working in smaller groups within the classroom. We usually have to share or don't have enough items for small groups. These items helped us group ours students within the classroom and meet them where they are at in their learning. \r\n\r\nIf you look closely, you can see that we were working on \"silent e\" in our lessons and working on \"g can say /j/\" as in age, page, giraffe... they love the \"magic\" green writing and the fun of pushing a button to clear away their writing. \r\n\r\nThese materials have truly ignited a passion for learning among our students. Thanks to your contributions, our students are now equipped with amazing tools that will help enhance their work on word work, sentence writing and formation, and phonics in a fun and engaging way. It's so nice to see them exploring letters and words with such enthusiasm! Your support is making a profound difference in their early learning journey, fostering their love for reading and writing from a young age. These tools cut out so much waste of buying dry erase marks and erasers for each student. This decreases the waste of spending for the school, us, the classroom teachers and the families! \r\n\r\nYour commitment to enhancing literacy in our classroom is not only inspiring, but it also lays the groundwork for a lifelong love of learning in our students. We are incredibly fortunate to have your support, and we look forward to sharing the continuing progress of our little ones with you.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for being a wonderful partner in education. Together, we are making a difference!","fullyFundedDate":1738592771636,"projectUrl":"project/tools-for-success-in-kindergarten-litera/8991937/","projectTitle":"Tools for Success in Kindergarten Literacy","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Anderson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9865358"},{"teacherId":9864042,"projectId":8990333,"letterContent":"Thank you so very much for the much needed school supplies and equipment.
