Watching these students grow in their ability to create films and videos has been incredibly rewarding as their teacher. You have played a direct role in helping make their dreams come true.\r\n\r\nA group of students approached me with the idea of taking over the school's social media pages—especially the TikTok account. The sound equipment you donated has made their videos sound professional. As a result, the TikTok page has really taken off, and I'm excited to see how they continue to grow it in the future.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you for the incredible contribution you made to these students.","fullyFundedDate":1733344132143,"projectUrl":"project/beyond-the-boom-microphone/8929666/","projectTitle":"Beyond the Boom (microphone)","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Leary","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9830478_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y208&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731084726932","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9830478"},{"teacherId":8957289,"projectId":9003976,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the color printer!

It encourages mindfulness and patience, as the process of forming each letter requires focus and precision. This attention to detail can improve fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, while the slow, deliberate practice can promote a sense of calm and reduce stress. Calligraphy also nurtures an appreciation for the beauty of letters as an art form, inspiring students to express themselves through visual design. Additionally, mastering calligraphy can boost confidence as students see their progress and develop a unique skill that blends artistic expression with technical mastery.\r\n We would like to thank you again for your donation. It has enabled students to learn a skill that seems obsolete. When asked how calligraphy has impacted them, they responded with \"it has taught us patience and learning this form of art has made us feel empowered.\"\r\n Students spent roughly 4 weeks learning the strokes of calligraphy and have successfully mastered the minuscule and majuscule letters by memory. They are now excited to incorporate their calligraphy into their art.","fullyFundedDate":1733344132249,"projectUrl":"project/help-my-art-students-learn-calligraphy/8873936/","projectTitle":"Help My Art Students Learn Calligraphy!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Walter","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9695191"},{"teacherId":9758481,"projectId":8798893,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the donation to my classroom and students of graphing calculators. They have successfully been able to complete their unit on comparing linear and quadratic equations. They learned about the difference in powers on the variable and what that does to the appearance of the graph. They also learned about what makes a graph move vertically on a coordinate plane. They practiced graphing lines and parabolas by hand, first. Then they learned how to utilize the graphing calculators and manipulate their graphs. \r\n The students and I are very thankful for the generosity we were given with the donation of these calculators.","fullyFundedDate":1727102097775,"projectUrl":"project/linear-and-quadratic-graphs/8798893/","projectTitle":"Linear and Quadratic Graphs","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Schofield","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9758481"},{"teacherId":8957289,"projectId":8918776,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the desk, which will provide our students with a quiet space to take a break from the classroom and focus away from the surrounding noise.\r\n\r\nThere are times when students need a calm, quiet environment to concentrate and complete their assignments without the distractions of the classroom.
