When the new resources arrived, my students were absolutely thrilled. The Colors of the World crayons, markers, and colored pencils have been amazing for students to use while creating their self-portraits at the start of the year. They immediately began matching the shades to their own skin tones and proudly created portraits that truly looked like them. The new storage drawers, mesh pouches, and organization baskets have also transformed our classroom. Students can now independently grab the supplies they need and keep their materials neat, which has given them a greater sense of responsibility.\r\n\r\nWe jumped right into using the supplies for our \"All About Me Bag\" project. Students filled their bags with items and drawings that described themselves and used the new crayons and markers to personalize every detail. Even everyday items like the dry-erase markers, binders, and erasers have made a huge difference in our daily routines, allowing lessons to run more smoothly and ensuring students have tools that work well.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, our classroom is more organized, more inclusive, and more creative. These supplies have already made a real impact on student confidence and independence, and we are so grateful for the opportunities you've made possible!","fullyFundedDate":1755689429258,"projectUrl":"project/supplies-for-a-successful-school-year/9443759/","projectTitle":"Supplies for a Successful School Year!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fuehrer","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9173116_orig.jpg?crop=2400,2400,x0,y240&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752610398095","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9173116"},{"teacherId":5381106,"projectId":9477007,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom.

Students rushed to explore the new seating options—foldable chairs and cushions—and immediately started imagining how they could use them during reading time, centers, or independent work. One student said, \"It feels like home!\"—and that's exactly the environment I hoped to create. These comfy seating options make reading much more enjoyable for the class as a whole!\r\n\r\nAfternoon snack time has become a favorite part of our routine. After a full day of learning, having a healthy snack helps students recharge and stay focused during the final stretch of the day. We often pair snack time with a read-aloud or quiet reflection time, creating a peaceful and calming transition. Students who may have forgotten or did not bring a snack to school are able to choose one from the bin, making snacks accessible for all the students in my classroom. \r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and generosity!","fullyFundedDate":1755689431299,"projectUrl":"project/back-to-first-grade/9456716/","projectTitle":"Back to First Grade!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bouras","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9594320_orig.png?crop=542,542,x0,y70&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1728828674734","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-blob"},{"teacherId":4651305,"projectId":9508306,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donations.
