With the ability to print vibrant visuals, customized worksheets, and interactive materials, I can better support my students' individual learning styles and communication needs. It also allows me to quickly adapt materials on the fly, ensuring that therapy remains dynamic and responsive to each child's progress.\r\n\r\nAccess to Teachers Pay Teachers has been a game-changer for my therapy planning and creativity. Being able to purchase high-quality, ready-to-use resources created by fellow educators saves me hours of prep time and provides fresh, evidence-based ideas tailored to speech and language goals. Whether I need seasonal articulation games, social skills activities, or language comprehension packets, I can find exactly what fits my students' needs. This flexibility not only enriches my therapy sessions but also keeps students motivated and excited to participate.\r\n\r\nOverall, having access to a color printer and the resources on Teachers Pay Teachers has transformed my therapy room into a more vibrant, engaging, and effective space for learning and growth. professionals. This combination supports a healthy, well-rounded therapeutic environment where students feel motivated, understood, and empowered to reach their communication goals. It's made my work more efficient and impactful, and most importantly, it's helping my students thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1746786966556,"projectUrl":"project/essentials-to-healthy-therapy/9269984/","projectTitle":"Essentials to Healthy Therapy","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Williams","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9821611"},{"teacherId":9820744,"projectId":9721772,"letterContent":"On behalf of Chaffey Aquatics, I want to sincerely thank you for your generous support.

Your support has made a lasting impact on our students, especially in our low-income school community. With your help, we've been able to provide students with an opportunity to engage in educational, strategic, and social games that they might otherwise not have access to. The donation you made has not only brought new games into our classroom but has also opened doors for learning, problem-solving, and building lasting friendships.\r\n\r\nBoard games have proven to be a powerful tool for our students to develop critical thinking, teamwork, and communication skills, all while having fun. For many of our students, these sessions are a rare opportunity to experience something that promotes creativity and collaboration outside the traditional classroom setting. Your contribution has helped bridge the gap and provided our students with a safe space to unwind, engage with their peers, and enhance their cognitive skills in ways that are both enjoyable and meaningful.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, we are already seeing positive changes in our students' confidence and social-emotional growth. It's inspiring to watch students who were once hesitant to engage in group activities now eagerly participate and form new connections. Your support not only impacts their time spent with us but also shapes their future learning experiences in and outside of school. Thank you again for your invaluable contribution—it's making a difference in the lives of so many students, and we are truly grateful for your kindness and belief in our mission.","fullyFundedDate":1743093249234,"projectUrl":"project/jump-start-board-game-club/9211210/","projectTitle":"Jump Start Board Game Club","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Tran","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9818281"},{"teacherId":9820665,"projectId":8936473,"letterContent":"The support from our DonorsChoose project—funding for Raspberry Pi microcontrollers and electronic components—has had a transformative impact on our high school robotics team.

The way I am choosing to incorporate the books received is by encouraging the kids to read during their downtime between assignments, which is especially important to fill now since our school has a ban on cell phones in class. On other days, we give the allotted time of silent sustained reading which is just enough to get them interested in their style of book. This allows them to have their pick ready for the next time they get a chance to read. One specific moment, I recall was when a student was very begrudgingly choosing a book from a shelf of old, worn books that we have. The student was complaining out loud and he said, \"Mister, why don't we have any fun books to read? Like fun ones with cool pictures?\". The rest of the class erupted telling him that he should go look at the new comic books present in the back in the box they arrived in and he quickly retracted his statement and continued on with one of the comic books we received. We didn't hear his \"complaints\" any more after this day so that was a surprise.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw these materials, they were mostly confused. It was mostly because these books aren't really present in our high school setting. I remember one of the girls in our class saying, \"Hey, my younger sibling has that book in his school too!\" Other kids were asking her about the book and her thoughts on it, since our multilingual students didn't read much in their home countries. The student in question talked about the Diary of a Wimpy kid books and how they're \"dumb, but they're fun.\" Then she explained about how sometimes the kids in the book have a \"cheese touch and stuff\" and the kids wanted to know more about the series as a whole. They were especially excited about the comic books as they have never read one, but it was fun for all of the kids that wanted to read those as we had a small group that was learning how to read the panels in the correct order.\r\n\r\nSo far, I am thinking that once the students have read the amount equivalent to one book that they will have a project where they will \"advertise\" their book of choice. They will have to give a review that will be roughly a paragraph long and give a ranking of 1-5 stars. They will have to include their favorite section of the book in the form of a quote, and will make this poster well-decorated and colorful. But until they get there, I will build up to it with reading logs once they're \"hooked\" on their book of choice.","fullyFundedDate":1750166261050,"projectUrl":"project/encouraging-quick-reads-keeping-kids-h/9119610/","projectTitle":"Encouraging Quick Reads - Keeping Kids Hooked on Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Aguayo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9926637"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_25680","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":3223,"numTeachers":139,"percentFrplEligible":84,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":3,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":89,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"23.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":66.5,"schoolId":25680,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Chaffey High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Chaffey High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/chaffey-joint-union-high-school-district/chaffey-high-school/25680"}
