Many of our students use technology at home, but having the right tools at school has made a meaningful difference in how they learn each day. With access to new headphones and mice, students are able to work more smoothly and independently on their Chromebooks. Everyone can clearly hear instructional videos and respond to questions using programs like Edpuzzle, which allows students to learn through videos while checking their understanding along the way. The mice have also helped students navigate digital work more quickly and confidently, making learning more efficient and less frustrating. The ability to store these items neatly in our classroom has been an added bonus and keeps everything organized and accessible.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the technology, students have been especially excited about the new National Parks magnets. These magnets not only add color and interest to our classroom board, but they have become part of a fun and motivating classroom game. Students love choosing a national park magnet, and on the back they can discover different rewards they can earn through hard work and positive choices. It has been a simple but powerful way to boost engagement and excitement in our classroom.\r\n\r\nSeveral students who do not always have access to new technology accessories at home have shown particular enthusiasm for the headphones and mice. Their excitement was clear as they eagerly explored using these tools, and it has helped them feel included and confident during technology-based lessons. Your generosity has had a positive impact on our students' learning, motivation, and overall classroom experience. Thank you for investing in our students and helping make our classroom a place where everyone can succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1761448515040,"projectUrl":"project/click-listen-learn-headphones-and-mic/9619969/","projectTitle":"Click, Listen, Learn!

Because of your donation, my students were able to fully experience the excitement of running their own businesses and making real-world economic decisions.\r\n\r\nMarket Day was an incredible success! Students worked hard to create and sell their own products, and with their profits, they had the opportunity to shop at my classroom store—made possible by your support. The Pop-it balls were a huge hit, and many students loved the mini Lego boxes. One student was so excited that he couldn't wait to show me a picture of the Lego creation he built! Watching their faces light up as they carefully decided how to spend their hard-earned money was truly rewarding.\r\n\r\nBeyond the fun, this project taught them essential skills about budgeting, making economic choices, and weighing costs and benefits—all in a hands-on, engaging way. The knowledge they gained will stick with them for years to come, shaping how they make financial decisions in the future.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students this unforgettable learning experience.
