The excitement of receiving the board was pure joy by all of us. \r\n\r\nWhether we are annotating text/art as a class, playing an interactive game or we are watching a video clip to clarify a standard, the board has improved and impacted all of my lessons. Having this board has even helped students see the content on the screen better - it is so clear and bright! I don't even have to turn off the lights all the time. I cannot express enough how this interactive display board has made such an impact for all of my students - past, present and future. Again, thank you for supporting my classroom, my lessons, and my students!","fullyFundedDate":1652402271144,"projectUrl":"project/interactive-display-board-inspires-inter/6103590/","projectTitle":"Interactive Display Board Inspires Interaction","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Zarate","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2508515_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1449797479818","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-zarate"},{"teacherId":2294946,"projectId":9029684,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous contribution to our classroom project! Thanks to your support, we were able to purchase backup batteries for our Canon cameras—and they are already making a big difference.\r\n\r\nHaving these extra batteries has given us the flexibility we needed, especially during field trips and extended activities. Before, we often found ourselves with dead camera batteries right when we wanted to capture those special moments. Now, with backup power ready to go, we can keep documenting learning experiences without interruption.\r\n\r\nYour gift is helping us preserve memories and tell the story of our students' learning journeys. The photos we take help students reflect on their experiences, and they also allow us to share these moments with families and our school community.\r\nWe're so grateful for your support.

Art has allowed my students to connect to their writing, history, and reading lessons deeper by having opportunities to creatively express their understanding. The action scene clapboard helped make our mystery skits even more entertaining with an \"Action\" to announce when to begin each performance or the colored sharpies to decorate our stained glass windows or the cardstock to use as a canvas for our African Baobab trees. All of the supplies have help build our classroom environment and expand our learning.
