Our Integrated Science students and I have been putting the new classroom resources to great use every single day. The supplies have helped us stay organized, clean, and ready for all of the exciting hands-on investigations we do in class. This year, we've completed a wide range of labs—from exploring energy transfer to testing soap brands for the biggest bubbles and those experiences can sometimes get messy! Whether it's a small spill during a bottle flip lab or bubble blowing lab or cleaning up after building and testing models, the tissues and cleaning supplies have been essential to keeping our workspace safe and functional. We are really using the tissues with allergy and flu season hitting us hard.","fullyFundedDate":1755662754972,"projectUrl":"project/supplies-to-wipe-dab-and-learn/9525404/","projectTitle":"Supplies to Wipe, Dab, and Learn!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gregory","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3308034_orig.jpg?crop=1836,1836,x244,y718&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691616055126","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3308034"},{"teacherId":3308034,"projectId":9524906,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the generous donations! Our Integrated Science students have been making great use of the new resources in our classroom, and their excitement was clear from the very first moment they saw them. When the materials arrived, especially the variety of treats and snacks, the students were very eager to earn them. For some students, having these rewards available has been a big motivator to participate more actively and work collaboratively in their groups. Others were just deeply appreciative to know that they had a snack available if they happened to miss lunch or needed a quick energy boost to stay focused. These small additions have made a big impact on the classroom environment, creating a more positive and supportive atmosphere where students feel cared for and rewarded for their efforts.","fullyFundedDate":1755660828565,"projectUrl":"project/snack-attack/9524906/","projectTitle":"Snack Attack!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gregory","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3308034_orig.jpg?crop=1836,1836,x244,y718&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691616055126","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3308034"},{"teacherId":578118,"projectId":9243395,"letterContent":"Attention, attention—we're proud to announce we're now the proud \"owners\" of a brand-new class set of Death of a Salesman!

Our old storage system was falling apart, and it had become increasingly difficult for students to find what they needed.

It's sturdy, well-designed, and has brought a sense of order to a very busy music room.\r\n\r\nRight now, students are using it to store their sheet music, folders, and pencils, but we're especially looking forward to next year. I'll be writing a brand-new curriculum for both beginning choir and beginning guitar, and the mail sorter will be an essential part of keeping those materials accessible and organized for every student.
