My students have an extremely early lunch time. They have lunch at 9:50 in the morning, which makes snack time very important. Food is something that I always make sure to have in my classroom especially for those who don't bring in anything from home. It really helps to not have to spend my own money for a little bit while your snacks provide that extra help to those in need.\r\nSometimes all a child needs is a little something to eat in order to help them focus in class.

The materials you provided—especially the ABC magnetic letters and the ABC floor decals—have already made a meaningful difference for our kindergarten and first‑grade students with special needs. The children are genuinely excited to use these new tools, and their enthusiasm has brought a wonderful energy into our learning environment. These resources make learning feel fun and accessible, helping students stay engaged while building confidence in early literacy skills such as letter recognition, sound awareness, and basic word building.\r\n\r\nBeyond academics, your donation is strengthening essential developmental skills that our students practice every day. Activities using the magnetic letters and floor decals support fine motor development, visual‑motor coordination, bilateral integration, and following multi‑step directions—all foundational skills that help children participate more independently in school routines. Watching them hop from letter to letter, match sounds, or use both hands to manipulate the magnets has been incredibly rewarding. Your generosity is not only giving them tools to learn, but also opportunities to grow, explore, and succeed in ways that truly matter. Thank you for making such a positive impact on our students' learning and development.","fullyFundedDate":1767808741788,"projectUrl":"project/multi-sensory-needed/9493177/","projectTitle":"Multi-Sensory Needed","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Quiroz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8072279_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x0,y160&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1660768859210","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8072279"},{"teacherId":86946,"projectId":9817269,"letterContent":"I can not begin to explain how this new laptop has changed evertything for the better in my classroom!\r\nBefore this project, my old laptop would not hold a charge and had to remain plaugged in at all times, which limited where and how I could teach. Thanks to your geneorsity in donating this new laptop, I am now able to move freely around the classroom and use technology seamlessly during lessons.\r\n\r\nThis technology helps my students learn by allowing me to quickly pull up interactive lessons, model skills in real time, and provide immediate feedback based on student data. I can differentiate instruction more effectively, ensuring all learners receive the support or challenge they need.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for my students is seeing lessons come to life through interactive activities and visuals. They are more engaged, eager to participate, and motivated when learning feels dynamic and responsive.\r\n\r\nThis laptop has been especially impactful for students who benefit from visual learning, small-group instruction, and consistent feedback. Being able to work with students anywhere in the room has strengthened connections and increased confidence.
