Because of your donations, my students were able to participate in a fun, hands-on learning experience that combined creativity, teamwork, and joy. The powdered sugar was used to make icing that held each gingerbread house together, while the paper cups helped us organize icing and candy portions so every student had fair access to materials. The M&M's Minis and jumbo gumdrops added color and excitement, allowing students to design unique creations and practice planning and problem-solving skills. When students first saw the materials, their excitement was contagious, and they were eager to begin working together. This project encouraged collaboration, patience, and fine motor development while creating a memorable classroom experience.

One of the most impactful items has been the visual timer, which supports time management, smooth transitions, and student independence during lessons and activities.

Your support has already made a meaningful difference in our students' daily learning experiences, and we are incredibly grateful.\r\n\r\nSince receiving the paper, my students have been using it every day across subjects. In reading and writing, students draft responses using strategies such as RACE, create graphic organizers, and publish final copies of their written work with pride. In social studies, they've been using the paper to take notes, create timelines, and design visuals to explain their thinking. Having consistent access to quality paper enables students to focus on learning and expressing their ideas, rather than worrying about whether they have the necessary materials.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the new paper, they were genuinely excited. Many of them commented on how \"official\" their work felt and were eager to start new assignments. It may seem like a simple supply, but to students, having fresh materials shows them that people beyond their classroom care about their success. That excitement carried over into their work—students were more engaged, took extra care with their handwriting, and showed increased motivation to complete assignments thoughtfully.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, our next steps include continuing a writing project where students are planning, drafting, revising, and publishing longer pieces of writing. They will also be using the paper for collaborative projects, note-taking during close reading lessons, and independent practice that helps build confidence and academic skills. Your donation ensures that all students have equal access to the materials they need to fully participate and succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1755735490762,"projectUrl":"project/paper-for-success-giving-students-the-t/9613966/","projectTitle":"Paper for Success: Giving Students the Tools To Learn","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Foley","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7027444_orig.png?crop=532,532,x0,y28&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1576188750584","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7027444"},{"teacherId":4101063,"projectId":9812628,"letterContent":"Thank you for your support of our classroom!
