Your kindness has planted more than just seeds—it has planted excitement, curiosity, and a love for nature in our students. When the seeds arrived, my students were thrilled! They couldn't wait to get their hands in the soil and start growing something of their own.\r\nThis project is teaching them responsibility, patience, and the science behind plant life. Every day, they check on their plants, measure growth, and celebrate each tiny sprout. It's amazing to see how this simple act of giving has created such meaningful learning experiences.\r\nYour support is helping us grow more than plants—you're helping us grow future scientists, environmental stewards, and lifelong learners.

Students use them during math centers and literacy rotations to practice critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork. For example, during a recent math lesson, students played a strategy-based game that reinforced multiplication and logical reasoning. It was incredible to see them apply classroom concepts in a fun, hands-on way. One unforgettable moment was when students first saw the games—they literally jumped with joy! They immediately started reading the instructions and organizing teams. The laughter and collaboration filled the room, and it was clear these games were going to make learning feel like play","fullyFundedDate":1739373210681,"projectUrl":"project/building-minds-through-play-enhancing-s/9039343/","projectTitle":"Building Minds Through Play: Enhancing Skills With Board Games","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Sharma","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8377264_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746631580963","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8377264"},{"teacherId":9516157,"projectId":9124149,"letterContent":"Once again thank you so much for your contributions to help my students become STEMazing scientists. When my students first saw the materials they were absolutely fascinated with all of it and asked so many questions on what they were and how they worked! Once I explained to them what they were for, they got so excited and could not wait to use them and see what they did for themselves.\r\n\r\nAs of right now we are currently using the seed starter tray to grow arugula and fennel to be later transplanted into our school garden. When we were setting up the seed trays, my class was so engaged and ready to be scientists to understand how we can use only rockwool cubes, nutrient solution water and UV lights to grow plants. When they saw that first sprout they were amazed and so proud of themselves that they made that happen. Now they check on the arugula sprouts everyday to see how much more it has grown or if it obtained any new leaves. \r\n\r\nAgain thank you for your donation because my students are getting the opportunity to be truly STEMazing scientists.","fullyFundedDate":1744906414587,"projectUrl":"project/stemazing-scientists-at-work/9124149/","projectTitle":"STEMazing Scientists at Work!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fraijo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/sfraijo"},{"teacherId":9516157,"projectId":8588692,"letterContent":"First my class would like to thank you for all these new resources that you helped to provide us. I have truly seen an increase in students interest in literature and reading. The really good stuff reading comprehension games have been a big hit in the classroom! Anytime the students are finished with their work or have free time they leap to grab that game and test each others knowledge. It has really been a wonderful thing to see. Thank you for all the new books we received, I am happy to report the books are already looking very worn because of how much the students are reading them! Thank you again for your tremendous help. It has meant a lot to my students, they have really enjoyed all the books and games they have received.

The students always are excited to use them for writing words or letters. If they are using the boards properly, they are giving the enjoyment of drawing a picture on it after they have worked on them. The other supplies for ELA are most helpful to be able to use at their current grade and the future grades. \r\n\r\nThe Math game is challenging for the students and allows me as a teacher to know where they are at in their understanding in Math. It really makes them think when they have to guess the correct multiple choice answer to pursue on to the finish line on the board. I like how it covers many Math standards. \r\n\r\nI look forward in continuing to use the supplies for my students.
