This week, my students used the new tissue paper to complete a fine motor art project. They ripped, rolled, and glued tiny pieces to create beautiful rainbow collages. Activities like this help strengthen their hand muscles for writing while giving them a chance to express themselves through art.\r\n\r\nYour support also helped us organize our learning space with new seat covers that neatly hold their whiteboards, workbooks, pencils, markers, and erasers. My students are so proud to have their own supplies in one place, and it has made transitions smoother and more independent.\r\n\r\nWe've begun using the magnets and Velcro dots for our daily learning targets and goal-setting charts, and the students love tracking their progress. The growth mindset posters you helped fund have already made a difference. I hear students refer back to them when facing academic and social challenges, reminding themselves to try again, stay positive, and believe in their abilities.\r\n\r\nThe beautiful classroom and hallway décor has transformed our learning space into a bright, vibrant, and happy environment. It truly feels like a place where students want to be. A place that celebrates their culture, their effort, and their potential.\r\n\r\nNone of this would have been possible without you. Your kindness brought color, structure, and inspiration into our classroom, and my students feel truly valued because someone believed in them.
