Because of you, I received ink, laminating pouches, and cardstock that allow me to create engaging math stations and learning activities that support students across our entire school.\r\n\r\nAs the school's math coach, I use these materials to design high-quality, reusable resources that are shared with multiple classrooms and grade levels. Teachers are able to implement engaging stations, small-group activities, and hands-on practice that meet the needs of diverse learners.\r\n\r\nThe impact has been powerful. Students are more engaged and confident as they interact with math in meaningful ways, and teachers feel supported with ready-to-use resources that enhance instruction. Having the ability to laminate and reuse materials ensures consistency and sustainability, allowing these resources to benefit students again and again.\r\n\r\nYour generosity is helping strengthen math instruction school-wide and create learning experiences that are engaging, accessible, and effective for all students. Thank you for investing not only in materials, but in the success of our students and teachers.","fullyFundedDate":1758202744310,"projectUrl":"project/leveling-up-learning-with-engaging-math/9674771/","projectTitle":"Leveling Up Learning with Engaging Math Stations!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Brown","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1895284_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1483661463863","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mscarmenb"},{"teacherId":5497407,"projectId":9737155,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for helping to refill and revitalize our classroom closet.

When a student needs a tissue, they take one.
