The moment the games arrived, the students were buzzing with excitement. They immediately gathered to explore the board games, card decks, and interactive puzzles—grinning as they practiced multiplication, fractions, and problem‑solving in a fun, collaborative way.\r\n Over the past few weeks, I've seen real shifts: students who previously struggled with basic number sense are now confidently explaining strategies and even teaching peers. These moments fostered not just math growth, but teamwork, communication, and resilience. Our classroom culture has become more dynamic—students deliberate, celebrate each other's progress, and are pushing themselves harder because they know they aren't alone.\r\n I'm deeply grateful for your generosity—not only does it provide engaging learning tools, but it sends a message: people believe in these students and their capacity to learn. Your support has transformed many 'small wins' into smiles, confidence, and a renewed love for math. Thank you for being part of this journey and helping build stronger learners, one playful moment at a time.","fullyFundedDate":1750646846235,"projectUrl":"project/multiply-the-fun-math-games-for-growing/9426739/","projectTitle":"Multiply the Fun: Math Games for Growing Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Hernandez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7949497_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750826397473","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/hernandezclassroom31"},{"teacherId":7949497,"projectId":6512570,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of my classroom! The LCD tablets we received have been a wonderful addition to our daily math instruction. My 6th grade students were immediately excited to use them, and they quickly became a favorite tool for practicing math problems, showing their thinking, and engaging in class activities.\r\n\r\nOne of the biggest benefits of these tablets is how easy they are to use—no need for erasers or dry-erase markers, which often run out or get lost. Students were able to quickly write and revise their work, making it easier to stay focused during lessons. The simplicity of the tablets allowed us to transition smoothly between activities, and I saw a noticeable boost in participation, especially from students who are usually more hesitant to share their answers.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, my students had a more interactive and engaging math experience this year.

For instance, it allows them to type their thoughts quickly, helping to boost their confidence and expression in writing. Additionally, for our Vietnamese student, the translation tool has been a game-changer, enabling them to participate more fully in class discussions and assignments. This technology has opened up new avenues for learning and engagement, and we are truly grateful for your generosity.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your support.
