Because of your kindness, our learning space has been transformed. The new carpet provides students with clearly defined spots to sit, helping everyone stay focused and comfortable during lessons. It has quickly become the heart of our classroom—used not only for reading time but also for whole-group teaching, class discussions, and community-building activities.\r\n\r\nThe colorful bins and new materials have also made it easier for students to keep our books and supplies organized, creating a welcoming and well-structured environment. Your donations have truly made a lasting impact, giving students a place where they can learn, share ideas, and grow together every single day.

My students and I appreciate your support so much! I am so deeply grateful for your generous donation to our classroom project! Thanks to your support, my students now have access to a wonderful collection of bilingual books and high-quality headphones. These new materials are already making a difference — students are excited to dive into stories in both English and Spanish, and the headphones are helping them stay focused and engaged during their reading and listening activities. In addition, when we test, we no longer have to worry about having headphones that work.\r\n\r\nYour contribution has truly enriched our learning environment. The bilingual books are helping my students build confidence and pride in their language abilities while expanding their vocabulary and comprehension. The headphones also allow them to enjoy individualized reading and language practice, fostering independence and curiosity. Seeing their smiles and enthusiasm reminds me how powerful kindness and generosity can be. I was able to also share some of my own collection of bilingual books with families during conferences to help foster reading practice at home since I have a whole new collection!\r\n\r\nThank you once again for believing in our students and investing in their future. Your support has created meaningful learning opportunities that will have a lasting impact on our classroom community.","fullyFundedDate":1746699186539,"projectUrl":"project/bilingual-super-powers/9047859/","projectTitle":"Bilingual Super Powers!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Burton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/tami-burton"},{"teacherId":9623400,"projectId":8548434,"letterContent":"I want to extend my deepest gratitude for your generous support of my DonorsChoose project. Your kindness has made such an incredible impact on my first year of teaching and on the bright, curious students who fill my classroom every day. Because of you, our classroom is now filled with essential materials, hands-on learning games, and joyful resources that make learning exciting and accessible for all students.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nStarting out as a first-year teacher can be overwhelming—building a classroom from the ground up takes time, patience, and resources. Thanks to your generosity, my students now have the materials they need to grow both academically and socially. The games you helped provide are already making a difference! They are being used during small-group instruction, centers, and free-choice time to reinforce math, literacy, and problem-solving skills in engaging, play-based ways.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhen my students see the colorful math manipulatives, letter games, and logic puzzles, their faces light up with excitement. These tools make learning tangible and fun, helping them practice foundational skills without even realizing how hard they're working. It's been amazing to watch students who once hesitated to participate now eagerly take turns, help their classmates, and celebrate each other's successes.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe classroom essentials you helped fund—storage bins, organization materials, and other supplies—have transformed our learning environment into a place that feels calm, welcoming, and ready for discovery. Everything now has a place, which helps my students take responsibility for their learning space and build independence. Having a well-stocked and organized classroom also allows me to spend more time teaching and less time improvising, which means every moment of our day can be purposeful.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nYour support is more than a donation—it's an investment in the future. Many of my students come from diverse backgrounds and are learning English as a second language. Having access to visual, hands-on resources helps bridge those gaps, making learning more inclusive for everyone. These games and materials encourage communication, teamwork, and creativity—skills that reach far beyond our classroom walls.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nEach day, I am reminded of how much your generosity matters. Whether we're laughing together during a phonics game, building number sense with dominoes, or solving a puzzle as a team, the joy and confidence I see in my students are the direct result of your kindness. You've helped me create a classroom that isn't just a place to learn—it's a community where curiosity, compassion, and confidence thrive.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThank you from the bottom of my heart for believing in me and my students. Your generosity has made our first year together truly unforgettable, and your impact will continue to ripple through everything we do.","fullyFundedDate":1732630115376,"projectUrl":"project/miss-mcmasters-first-year-classroom/8548434/","projectTitle":"Miss McMaster's First Year Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. McMaster","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9623400_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1730000914483","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9623400"},{"teacherId":9150326,"projectId":8939620,"letterContent":"Our students, age kindergarten - second grade, are often hungry the second half of the day and it is great to be able to provide them with a snack they will enjoy. They are able to work on communication skills, requesting, and describing different sensory characteristics relating to the food. \r\nDuring snack time, students are given a set of questions to discuss within the group. These are simple questions such as: What was your favorite activity at recess, what did you have for lunch, was it cold outside today? We are able to establish better relationships between the student in class, and encourage open lines of communications. \r\nThe funnest part of snack time is being able to ask students discriptive questions. Is the snack cruchy or soft, sweet or salty, big or little, what is the color, smell, shape. They love doing these \"snack time games,\" and always ask to be snack helper during job assignments in the morning.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, this is one of their favorite parts of they day!
