As a new (2nd year) teacher, having the supplies needed to create a successful and welcoming classroom was incredibly important to me, and your generosity truly made that possible. Because of the items provided through this project, my students are able to come to school each and every day with the materials they need ready and waiting for them. This has helped create equal access and opportunities for all students while removing barriers that can sometimes impact learning.\r\nThe materials from this project have supported my students and me across multiple projects and in all core subject areas. Every student now has a daily homework folder that includes important papers and protected reference sheets, such as times tables, giving them tools they can confidently use both at school and at home. Students were also provided writing notebooks that allow them to take notes and actively follow along with lessons during ELA and writing time, helping them stay engaged and organized.\r\nEach student has a morning journal that allows them to check in with me every single day. These journals have become one of the most meaningful parts of our classroom, helping us build trust, strengthen relationships, and foster a sense of belonging and connection. In addition, every student received an art supply bag filled with colored pencils, markers, crayons, glue sticks, and other supplies. These materials are used weekly for art projects and during math activities, including coloring practice that helps build fluency in multiplication and division while making learning enjoyable and accessible.\r\n As a new teacher, seeing my students walk into a classroom where they have everything they need has been incredibly meaningful. Your donations did more than provide materials — they helped create a classroom environment where students feel prepared, supported, and excited to learn.\r\nI am deeply thankful for each and every contribution that helped make this project successful. Your kindness has had a lasting impact on my students and on me as an educator beginning my teaching journey.\r\nI also want to sincerely apologize for the delay in sharing this message, as I have been managing some unexpected family situations. Please know that your generosity has not gone unnoticed and is truly appreciated more than words can express.","fullyFundedDate":1746786234144,"projectUrl":"project/together-we-will-strive-for-a-better-fut/9324528/","projectTitle":"Together We Will Strive for a Better Future","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Garcia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10019665_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1784906308544","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10019665"},{"teacherId":10243122,"projectId":10034620,"letterContent":"Students are ROARing with pride for the new PBIS incentives!
