They were very impressed! They all received a complete binder with writing utensils and dividers. We filled out the dividers together so they knew how to do it in the future.\r\n\r\nWhile I do not have 5th grade this year, some teachers from last year liked the idea and are currently working with the PTA to make this an annual funded project!","fullyFundedDate":1746479930242,"projectUrl":"project/project-prepared/9179635/","projectTitle":"Project Prepared","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Newman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2208114_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1488699912309","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/oxnardtk"},{"teacherId":2208114,"projectId":9196099,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for funding this project!

These are an invaluable asset to all grade levels and I hope to continue to have support in the coming years. I look forward to using markers and Sharpies from the beginning next year.\r\nAnother unexpected benefit came when I noticed the calming effect that came over some students while coloring.
