I cannot express how much it means to me know that so many are willing to donate to help me provide my students with the best library experience. This project helped to provide cleaning materials, safety precautions, and fun experiences for my students. \r\n\r\nOut of the many items that I received, I feel most thankful for the smart plugs. I have all of my lighting connected to them, so in case there is an emergency, we can make sure to be as safe as possible. This is something that I hope we never have to experience, however I am so thankful that I can be as prepared as possible.\r\n\r\nWhen my students saw the mosaic sticker poster, they were SO EXCITED to start working together to complete it. I am using it as a schoolwide initiative to read. Any time a student finishes a book they can add a sticker, and when the entire poster is finished we will have a party in the library! It will be such a fun way for the entire school to work together and see their reading progress. Thank you again for believing in the power of libraries and helping me to provide a safe space for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1742823860012,"projectUrl":"project/clean-and-safe-elementary-library/8974377/","projectTitle":"Clean and Safe Elementary Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Turnquist","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9808615_orig.jpg?crop=1242,1242,x0,y198&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1729340594113","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9808615"},{"teacherId":9872994,"projectId":9004477,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating! \r\n\r\nMy students love all the materials that were given to our classroom!\r\n\r\nThey are using the beanbags every day and often multiple times a day.\r\nThey use them to collaborate on assignments and even sit on them during inside recess.\r\n\r\nGetting new pencils and erasers allow my students to stay organized and do their work!\r\nGetting dry erase markers allows my students to have their own markers to stay engaged during a lesson because they can follow along and write with them on their desks!\r\n\r\nThank you so much for this opportunity!","fullyFundedDate":1735652193588,"projectUrl":"project/ms-coughlins-dream-classroom-24-25/9004477/","projectTitle":"Ms. Coughlin’s Dream Classroom 24-25","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Coughlin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9872994"},{"teacherId":7386539,"projectId":8928895,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation of our classroom snacks!
