It has made such a positive impact on our students, not only in their math skills but also in their motivation, confidence, and enthusiasm for learning.\r\n\r\nOne of the most rewarding changes has been seeing how excited our students are to use the program. They look forward to coming to class and eagerly anticipate their time practicing math. What might once have felt like repetitive memorization has become an engaging and enjoyable learning experience. The program turns practicing math facts into a fun challenge, encouraging students to keep trying, work toward their goals, and celebrate their progress.\r\n\r\nWe have seen our students become more confident and efficient in recalling their math facts. With consistent practice, they are building greater fluency, strengthening their foundational math skills, and developing the confidence they need to tackle more challenging concepts. It is especially rewarding to watch students recognize their own improvement and feel proud of what they can accomplish.\r\n\r\nBeyond the academic benefits, the program has helped foster a positive attitude toward math. Students are motivated to practice, excited to improve, and more willing to persevere when something feels difficult. That enthusiasm is invaluable because when students are engaged and believe in their abilities, they are better positioned to succeed.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in our students and making this resource possible. Your generosity has given us more than a computer program; it has given our students an opportunity to grow, build confidence, and experience the joy of learning. We are truly thankful for your support and the meaningful difference you are making in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1778303900520,"projectUrl":"project/drill-and-kill-is-dead-lets-play-m/10135186/","projectTitle":"\"Drill and Kill\" Is Dead - Let's Play Multiplication Games Instead!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Vitwar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3041836"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_26461","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":551,"numTeachers":34,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":12,"percentBlack":15,"percentWhite":12,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":48,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":1,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"16.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":84.2,"schoolId":26461,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Esther Lindstrom Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Esther Lindstrom Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/bellflower-unified-school-district/esther-lindstrom-elementary-school/26461"}
