The new desks, stools, and table covers have truly transformed our learning space. From the moment my students walked in, their excitement was contagious—they were amazed by how inviting and functional the classroom felt. These additions have made hands-on learning more manageable, organized, and engaging.\r\n\r\nRecently, my students completed a Pendulum Painting Lab, which allowed them to explore kinetic and potential energy through art and motion. The new tables provided the perfect surface and stability for this messy but meaningful activity. The space allowed students to collaborate, experiment, and truly see science in action.\r\n\r\nAs we continue our current unit, students will soon design and test roller coasters, and I know the ample workspace and sturdy setup will make a world of difference. Your support has not only improved the physical classroom but has also deepened student curiosity and excitement for science.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in our students' education and helping create a learning environment where creativity and discovery thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1747338387070,"projectUrl":"project/1st-year-stem-classroom/9259183/","projectTitle":"1st Year STEM Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Parrish","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7127964_orig.jpg?crop=411,411,x1,y48&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1650476070179","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7127964"},{"teacherId":3850747,"projectId":9627868,"letterContent":"This is the first year my students at my school are able to take computer science.

The resources you provided have already made such a difference in our classroom. My students' faces lit up when they first saw the new materials, and there was an immediate buzz of excitement as they started exploring. They couldn't wait to dive in, and it was clear from the very beginning that these resources would help keep their enthusiasm for reading alive.\r\n\r\nWe've been using the materials daily to strengthen literacy skills and build confidence. One of my favorite moments so far was watching a small group work together during reading rotations. They were engaged, laughing, and helping each other make sense of challenging text—all while using the tools you made possible. These kinds of moments are what make learning meaningful and lasting.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, my students now have opportunities to practice skills in ways that are both fun and effective. We are continuing to use these resources to prepare for upcoming lessons and to help all students, from struggling readers to those who are ready for enrichment, grow as learners. Your kindness has opened doors for them, and I know this will have an impact far beyond this year.","fullyFundedDate":1746786372054,"projectUrl":"project/fueling-4th-grade-with-literacy-fun/9266245/","projectTitle":"Fueling 4th Grade with Literacy Fun!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Boston","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10004128_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1745384851891","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10004128"},{"teacherId":10004128,"projectId":9266222,"letterContent":"Scholastic News has become a powerful tool in our 4th grade ELA classroom. The weekly issues give my students access to engaging, high-interest nonfiction texts that connect directly to the reading standards we are working on. Each article provides real-world content that helps them practice comprehension strategies like identifying main idea, citing text evidence, and comparing perspectives.\r\n\r\nBeyond reading skills, Scholastic News has sparked curiosity and meaningful conversations. Students are eager to discuss current events, science discoveries, and stories of kids their age making a difference. It has encouraged reluctant readers to engage because the topics feel relevant and accessible.\r\n\r\nThe resource also supports writing instruction. After reading, students respond through short constructed responses, RACE writing, and opinion pieces, which helps strengthen their ability to organize thoughts and cite evidence.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, Scholastic News has helped build confidence. Students feel proud when they can talk about real-world topics at home and connect their classroom learning to the world around them. Thanks to this resource, they are not only growing as readers and writers, but also as informed, thoughtful citizens.\r\n\r\nThank You\r\nWe are so grateful to the donors who make resources like Scholastic News possible in our classroom. Your generosity is giving my students the chance to become stronger readers, more confident writers, and more curious learners.

Your donation allowed us to purchase the technology and materials to make each student an ID card. We were also able to purchase technology to mount scan ports into each classroom. Students use their cards to enter/leave the room so that student safety is a number one priority. This technology inhibits students who should not have direct contact to \"plan\" a meet-up time outside the classroom through the use of digital hall passes.\r\n For administration and the faculty, this technology creates a safe environment for all students by ensuring the location of students whenever they are out of an adults direct line of sight. Students also have enjoyed the new technology. Having an ID card builds confidence and feelings of self-worth in our student body. It teaches self-reflection and self-discipline. \r\n Again, thank you for your kind donation to our efforts to build moral character in a safe learning environment.","fullyFundedDate":1741205630534,"projectUrl":"project/creating-a-positive-school-climate-for-s/9044104/","projectTitle":"Creating a Positive School Climate for Safety and Wellbeing","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Stults","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3850747_orig.jpg?crop=1933,1933,x293,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1558626529290","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3850747"},{"teacherId":10020887,"projectId":9325967,"letterContent":"Thank you again for your kindness and donation to my classroom.
