We have been using them during tutorials and collaborative study sessions to map out key ideas, solve problems step by step, and brainstorm together. One of my favorite moments was during a group activity where students had to break down a complex reading—seeing them crowd around their whiteboards, sketching out main ideas and connecting concepts, really highlighted how the tools encouraged teamwork and made their thinking visible. The whiteboards gave them the freedom to make mistakes, erase, and try again, which has helped them take more risks in their learning.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the materials, their excitement was obvious. Several immediately grabbed a marker and started doodling or writing their names just to test them out. They loved the idea that learning could be more interactive and less tied to paper and pencil. A few even said it felt \"more fun\" and \"less stressful\" to work out problems on the boards. That initial enthusiasm has carried over into our lessons, and the students are more engaged and willing to share their thinking with the class now that they have a tool that feels both collaborative and low-pressure.","fullyFundedDate":1746786201252,"projectUrl":"project/support-avid-scholars-donate-classroom/9222237/","projectTitle":"Support AVID Scholars: Donate Classroom Essentials","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Densford","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9504332_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1743606325455","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9504332"},{"teacherId":9563460,"projectId":8441676,"letterContent":"My students come into my class each day feeling provided for because they never feel like they are coming into class unprepared to learn and participate in all of our activities. Students love that they have access to pencils, highlighters, and lined paper whenever needed. They constantly tell me that I'm one of the only classes they have that helps them with their supplies. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, students have loved the creative projects they've been able to do because of the markers, colored pencils, and cardstock available to them thanks to these donations. They've been able to express their creativity through writing, drawing, and coloring, which has helped with engagement, and allows students to see themselves within my classroom when I hang them up as decorations.\r\n\r\nThe supplies provided for the atmosphere, such as the light covers, have allowed students to feel safe and cared for in my room. I am told all of the time that my room is so peaceful, and I have students who now enjoy coming in after school to wait for their parents to pick them up instead of in front of the school.","fullyFundedDate":1723468023116,"projectUrl":"project/the-giving-project-helping-students-su/8441676/","projectTitle":"The Giving Project - Helping Students Succeed","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Showler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9563460_orig.jpg?crop=917,917,x221,y1874&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721432894431","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9563460"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_74759","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2627,"numTeachers":96,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":13,"percentBlack":20,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":35,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"27.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":61.1,"schoolId":74759,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Spring Valley High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Spring Valley High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/nevada/clark-county-school-district/spring-valley-high-school/74759"}
