The decorations and organizational supplies you provided have helped us create an environment where students feel safe, excited, and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first walked into our newly decorated classroom, their faces lit up. One student said, \"It looks like a happy place!\" Another told me, \"I like how everything has a spot—it makes it easier to find what we need.\" That sense of joy and calm has carried over into their learning. With clearly labeled bins and spaces, students are able to take more responsibility for their materials, which builds independence and confidence.\r\n\r\nOne of our favorite classroom moments so far has been using our organized reading corner during small group lessons. The students love being able to quickly grab their books and tools, and then return them to their spot when we're done. It keeps our learning time focused and fun.\r\n\r\nBecause of your kindness, our classroom feels like a home where big learning can happen. Our next steps include diving deeper into our reading and writing projects, and these supplies will continue to support us as we practice working independently and taking pride in our classroom community.\r\n\r\nYou've given my students more than just supplies—you've given them a learning environment that shows them they are valued. Thank you for making such a meaningful difference for our classroom family.","fullyFundedDate":1746786277730,"projectUrl":"project/first-year-first-grade-classroom-fundin/9240510/","projectTitle":"First Year, First Grade Classroom Funding!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sullivan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9937320_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757801809897","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9937320"},{"teacherId":3424201,"projectId":6418195,"letterContent":"With your assistance and aid our classroom has been organized and orderly.

Because of your generous contributions students had tools and materials available to them to reach success! \r\nThe chart paper was an absolute blessing! With the curriculum we used there were a multitude of opportunities for students to collaborate and demonstrate their learning on the chart paper. I saw many students utilize these chances and create examples of their learning in a multitude of ways. Some kept to the familiar by making lists, writing down sentences of their learned info while others went the extra mile! Some decided to create beautiful visuals of things learned and enjoyed the opportunity!","fullyFundedDate":1707854491601,"projectUrl":"project/tools-for-readers-and-writers/8048498/","projectTitle":"Tools For Readers And Writers","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Fain","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7489499_orig.jpg?crop=1066,1066,x819,y264&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1603294023350","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7489499"},{"teacherId":7489499,"projectId":6906835,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your support and consideration to donate to this donors choose project! \r\nStudents were able to utilize the headphones and stay focused on their assessments without the distraction of having other students computers making noise. \r\nWe were very grateful to have these as all state testing, beginning, middle, and end of year assessments were on the chromebook and having these headphones were essential to the success we saw with students! \r\nSeeing students succeed and have confidence in themselves when they have achieved their goals makes everything worth it!

Currently, our stem lab is being relocated on campus. So I was unable to take a lot of pictures yet. However, teachers have checked out the finance books as they are reaching this topic in the math curriculum. I was able to shared the play money and some of the hands on activities with the younger grades which helped with concreting money skills they are learning. Finally, the registry has been placed in the pre-k room as a center/station they can play at during purposeful learning time. All of these experiences have been made possible by your generous donation. I am including a picture of a teacher that offered a game reward to a student for good choices. They chose a friend and the restaurant game as their reward. Learning rewards are the best!!

I have been able to share calming resources with other educators to benefit a variety of students in our school. The busy boxes in the office as well as Principal Lewis and Assistant Principal Legers offices. The boxes are able to be mobile to ensure we can help students anywhere on campus while also continuing with our duties. For example, we had a student that needed a break but we were all in a meeting with grade level staff. We were able to use the busy box for a break while also attending the grade levels needs in the meeting. The calm down balls are a hit and the spike ball to shake and pull on are a second fave. So thank you again for supporting my student and teachers in our district. I still would love to give you a tour of our school so you can see the great things we have going on for our students.

Many of our donors use technology at home, but seeing how it transforms classroom learning is truly special. In our classroom, this technology has become a powerful tool that supports engagement, independence, and deeper understanding.\r\n\r\nThe new product allows students to interact with lessons in ways that were not possible before. Whether they're practicing skills, exploring new concepts, or working collaboratively, the technology provides hands-on, personalized learning experiences. Students who once struggled to stay focused are now eager to participate because the interactive features make learning feel exciting and accessible.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting parts for students is the ability to receive real-time feedback. They love seeing their progress, correcting mistakes right away, and challenging themselves with the next task. Several students who are typically shy or hesitant have especially warmed to this new resource. For example, one student who often avoided participating has become one of the most active users—eager to click, explore, and show classmates what they've learned. Another student who struggles with reading now uses the audio and visual features to better understand instructions, which has greatly boosted their confidence.","fullyFundedDate":1680141434464,"projectUrl":"project/engaging-in-learning/7175855/","projectTitle":"Engaging in Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wolf","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8074579_orig.jpg?crop=1062,1062,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1634347114336","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8074579"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_15072","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":353,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":45,"percentWhite":16,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":27,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.3,"schoolId":15072,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Booker T Washington Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Booker T Washington Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/wichita-falls-independent-school-district/washington-jackson-tech-ctr/15072"}
