Your generosity has given my students a wonderful new way to create, explore, and express themselves during our Choice Time.\r\n\r\nThe easels have quickly become a favorite place in our classroom. My kindergarteners are so excited when they have the opportunity to paint, draw, and create their own masterpieces. At this age, art is so much more than making a beautiful picture. As my students create, they are strengthening their fine-motor skills, building confidence, making independent choices, solving problems, and learning to express their ideas and feelings.\r\n\r\nI especially love watching their faces light up as they stand at the easels and begin creating. There is something magical about giving a five-year-old a paintbrush, a blank piece of paper, and the freedom to use their imagination!\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in my students and for helping me provide them with meaningful, hands-on learning experiences. Because of you, our classroom is a more creative, joyful, and engaging place to learn. We are incredibly grateful for your kindness and support.","fullyFundedDate":1777590450770,"projectUrl":"project/creating-exploring-and-learning-at-the/10219304/","projectTitle":"Creating, Exploring, and Learning at the Easel","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cristina Holbrook","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7180579_orig.jpg?crop=959,959,x0,y156&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1647289912170","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7180579"},{"teacherId":7180579,"projectId":10001841,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your thoughtful contribution to our classroom.

Not only are the centers a favorite part of our day, but they also provide meaningful opportunities for creativity, collaboration, and hands-on learning.\r\n\r\nWe truly appreciate your kindness and investment in our students.

We love having so many options to practice fluency. The options allow each student to practice what they need to whether it be multiplication, division, or fractions. \r\nStudents get into groups and play games based off their needs. It is amazing to watch them get competitive and have fun all while learning. I have seen a major improvement in their fluency since we began playing games to practice. Students are memorizing facts and building automation which makes all math easier for them. They are more confident during lessons because they are not getting stuck on their math facts anymore.\r\nThank you for giving my students the opportunity to succeed while having fun!","fullyFundedDate":1760724575879,"projectUrl":"project/playing-our-way-to-fluency/9679197/","projectTitle":"Playing Our Way to Fluency!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Redding","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6252475"},{"teacherId":3981483,"projectId":9326018,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the headphones.

Each teacher has a shoe organizer that hangs in their classroom. In each pocket the students put their headphones so they are easily stored and accessible.\r\nIn the pass the headphones have not been very comfortable for the kids. They were too tight or loose. These headphones fit the kids and they dont mind wearing them while they are on the computers.\r\nThank you again for your generous donation.
