Because of you, learning now rolls in smoothly (literally). With a rolling crate that allows supplies to travel efficiently to and from class. Black Expo markers give students the clarity to show their thinking, while Sharpie creative markers bring anchor charts to life, highlighting key math concepts students rely on every day. Even the rainbow duct tape plays a meaningful role: color-coding each class period keeps notebooks organized and our classroom running like a well-solved equation. Together, these tools reduce distractions, increase focus, and help students grow as confident, capable mathematicians. We are truly grateful for your generosity and belief in our students.","fullyFundedDate":1759251509105,"projectUrl":"project/erase-the-divide/9747621/","projectTitle":"Erase the Divide","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mann","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9026116_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y786&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1694628849621","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/students-first22"},{"teacherId":9026116,"projectId":9454080,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous investment in our middle school mathematics classrooms. Because of your support, our students now have the tools they need—black chiseled dry erase markers, green dry erase markers, and high-quality dry erase erasers—to engage in mathematics in a way that is collaborative, visible, and joyful. Your donation may appear simple on the surface, yet its impact reaches far beyond supplies; it has transformed how students think, communicate, and learn together.\r\n\r\nWith these materials, students work in groups of three at non-permanent vertical white boards, turning walls into shared thinking spaces. These boards invite students to stand shoulder to shoulder, test ideas in real time, and explain their reasoning aloud. Math is no longer a quiet, solitary task completed on paper and hidden away. Instead, it becomes an active conversation—one where every student has a voice, a marker in hand, and the confidence to contribute.\r\n\r\nOne of the most powerful gifts these white boards provide is permission to make mistakes. Because nothing written is permanent, students are far more willing to take intellectual risks. They revise, erase, redraw, and try again without fear. Errors become stepping stones rather than setbacks, and students quickly learn that productive struggle is not only acceptable, but essential to deep mathematical understanding. Your support has helped foster a classroom culture where curiosity outweighs perfection.","fullyFundedDate":1753491791494,"projectUrl":"project/math-movement-and-markers/9454080/","projectTitle":"Math, Movement, and Markers!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mann","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9026116_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y786&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1694628849621","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/students-first22"},{"teacherId":9026116,"projectId":9419440,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous donations that helped us purchase strategic and card games like Uno, Sequence, and Codenames for our middle school students.
