The adjustable standing desk has already become a favorite spot for group work and presentations, giving students the flexibility to collaborate in a new way. The bookshelves have helped us keep our growing library and supplies organized, making it easier for students to access what they need without interrupting their learning.\r\n\r\nThe new lamps have created a warmer, more inviting atmosphere, especially during our independent reading and small group work time. Students have also been putting the washable markers to good use during our art-integrated lessons, from illustrating science concepts to creating vibrant posters for social studies. The large supply of pre-sharpened pencils means no more wasted time searching for a pencil; students can jump right into their work.\r\n\r\nNext, we plan to incorporate these resources into an ongoing research and presentation project, where students will use the standing desk to present their findings to the class, display their visuals on the new shelves, and bring their work to life with the markers and other supplies. These tools have not only improved our classroom environment but have also sparked new enthusiasm for learning.","fullyFundedDate":1746785491553,"projectUrl":"project/future-stars/9201793/","projectTitle":"Future Stars","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Asnicar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8223829_orig.jpg?crop=1440,1440,x0,y158&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1681332262428","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8223829"},{"teacherId":8223829,"projectId":9178272,"letterContent":"When our new materials arrived, the excitement in the room was immediate.

The new mailbox system quickly became a favorite — each student now has their own space for assignments, notes, and special messages. It's brought a sense of independence and responsibility to our daily routine, and students love checking their mail each morning.\r\n\r\nThe new clipboards have made it possible for us to take learning anywhere — whether it's small-group work on the carpet, outdoor science observations, or reading under a shady tree. Paired with the fresh supplies, my students now have the tools they need to engage in activities without the frustration of missing materials. One memorable moment was during a partner reading session outside; students sprawled out with clipboards and books in hand, fully immersed in their stories.\r\n\r\nWith these resources, our class is better organized, more engaged, and ready to take on new projects. Our next step is using the clipboards and supplies for an upcoming science project, where students will record data during outdoor experiments.

The Instax Mini camera and film became more than just classroom tools—they became powerful motivators and tangible symbols of achievement. In our classroom, students who are \"working on fire\" earn the opportunity to sit in the special \"fire chair,\" a reward that recognizes their hard work and focus. Capturing this moment with an instant photo that is immediately displayed on our \"Wall of Flame\" has brought an incredible sense of pride and joy to each student. The instant gratification of seeing their photo displayed has helped reinforce positive behaviors and encouraged consistent effort.\r\n\r\nThis visual recognition system has created a culture of motivation and perseverance. Students look forward to earning their spot on the wall and celebrate one another's successes. Over time, the Wall of Flame grows to reflect their progress, giving them a sense of ownership and accomplishment. At the end of the school year, students take home their collection of photos—a powerful reminder of what they achieved through hard work. Thanks to this project, students not only experienced academic growth but also gained confidence and pride in their abilities.","fullyFundedDate":1746454925199,"projectUrl":"project/were-on-fire/9173314/","projectTitle":"We're on Fire!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ulanet","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6856879_orig.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1741970046513","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6856879"},{"teacherId":8223829,"projectId":8936642,"letterContent":"Reading in my classroom is a journey of discovery, critical thinking, and engagement.

The I Survived books, for example, help students build comprehension skills by identifying key details, understanding cause and effect, and making inferences. These historical fiction texts also spark curiosity about real-world events, leading to meaningful discussions and deeper learning.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading happens in many ways—independent reading for enjoyment, small group discussions for collaboration, and whole-class read-alouds that model fluency and expression. Many of my students don't have access to books at home, so providing them with engaging, high-interest books is essential to building their love for reading.\r\n\r\nOne student, in particular, has been especially captivated by the I Survived series. At the beginning of the year, he struggled to find books that interested him, but now he eagerly reaches for the next I Survived book, excited to learn about historical events through the eyes of relatable characters.
