My students are ready to use the headphones, glue sticks, and Expo markers in meaningful ways throughout our school day. Headphones are used daily during small-group instruction and independent learning time, allowing students to listen to lessons, practice language skills, and focus without distractions. During a recent literacy rotation, students will use headphones to listen to bilingual stories while following along in print. Several students will smile with pride as they recognize vocabulary in both languages.\r\n\r\nMy students are excited and eager to use them. They are already asking when are the supplies coming, and thrilled to have new Expo markers and glue sticks ready for projects. These supplies will help them feel supported and valued, knowing they have the tools they need to fully participate in classroom activities.\r\n\r\nThe Expo markers and glue sticks are especially helpful during hands-on lessons. Students use Expo markers to solve problems on whiteboards, practice writing, and share their thinking during discussions. Glue sticks are used for interactive notebooks, graphic organizers, and dual language activities where students cut, sort, and match vocabulary or concepts. These activities help make learning engaging and accessible for all learners.\r\n\r\nOur next steps include continuing a dual language unit where students will collaborate on interactive projects, use whiteboards to practice new skills, and engage in listening activities that strengthen both language development and academic understanding. Because of your support, my students are better equipped to learn, collaborate, and grow with confidence.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving us a glimpse of your kindness through these resources. Your generosity has made a meaningful difference in our classroom, and my students and I are truly grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1769177467732,"projectUrl":"project/daily-learning-materials-headphones-m/9987650/","projectTitle":"Daily Learning Materials - Headphones, Markers and Glue","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jay","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8070962_orig.jpg?crop=347,347,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747852729485","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8070962"},{"teacherId":8070962,"projectId":9600053,"letterContent":"Because of your generosity, the printer you donated has had an immediate and positive impact on my students' learning. It has allowed me to print Spanish lessons, practice materials, visuals, and hands-on activities that support language development and understanding every day.\r\n\r\nHaving access to a reliable printer means lessons are no longer limited to what can be displayed on a screen. Students are able to interact with printed materials by reading, writing, highlighting, and organizing their work, which helps them better understand and retain new Spanish vocabulary and concepts. This has made learning more engaging and accessible for all students.\r\n\r\nMy students are especially excited to have materials created just for them. They take pride in their work and are more motivated to participate in Spanish activities when they can use clear, high-quality printed resources. The printer has also made it easier to differentiate instruction, allowing me to provide extra practice or enrichment as needed.\r\n\r\nStudents who benefit most are those who need visual support or additional practice. Printed Spanish materials help them follow along, build confidence, and feel successful in their learning. Overall, this project has helped create a more organized, engaging, and supportive learning environment.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in my students and helping them develop confidence and skills as Spanish and English learners.
