Because of your support, our students now have the opportunity to participate in flag football—an experience that goes far beyond the game itself. Your donations have created access, opportunity, and a sense of belonging for students who may not otherwise have had the chance to participate in organized sports.\r\n\r\nThrough flag football, students are gaining valuable life skills that extend well beyond the field. They are learning teamwork, communication, responsibility, and perseverance. Each practice and game helps students build confidence, develop discipline, and learn how to work toward shared goals. These lessons support not only their physical health but also their personal and academic growth.\r\n\r\nYour generosity sends a powerful message to our students: they matter. Knowing that members of the community care enough to invest in them has a meaningful impact on how they see themselves and their potential. Many students who were once hesitant to participate are now more engaged, motivated, and excited to be part of a team. Friendships are forming, leadership skills are emerging, and students are learning how to handle both success and challenges with resilience and respect.\r\n\r\nFlag football also provides a positive outlet for students' energy while promoting sportsmanship and mutual respect. It encourages students to stay active, support one another, and take pride in their school and accomplishments. These experiences help shape confident, well-rounded young people and contribute to a stronger school community.\r\n\r\nYour support is not just helping to fund a program—it is investing in our students' futures. The impact of your generosity will continue long after the season ends, as students carry these lessons with them into the classroom, their communities, and beyond.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of our students, families, and staff, thank you for your kindness and commitment. We are truly grateful for partners like you who believe in the power of opportunity and the importance of supporting our youth.","fullyFundedDate":1760464594596,"projectUrl":"project/preparing-for-the-season-one-piece-at-a/9786383/","projectTitle":"Preparing for the Season, One Piece at a Time","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Williams","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7155707"},{"teacherId":7980938,"projectId":9895801,"letterContent":"The materials from this project are quickly arriving and we could not be more excited. From office supplies to classroom student tools, we are putting these items into use immediately. So far, the items specifically for the students to use have been a hit. Especially, the personal pencil sharpeners. The student's were excited that they would be able to add this tool into their pencil caddies. The pencil sharperners at their desk allow students to stay focused on their work and stops them from frequently leaving their desks or waiting in line for the sharpener. This increases their amount of time on task and engaged in their learning. This is also an excellent \"fine motor\" task to strength their fingers, which helps with future pencil grasp patterns that they are developing. Strong fine motor skills and being able to grip a pencil helps to strengthen their confidence in the act of writing. \r\nThe office supplies have been utilized to decorate our classroom for the season. This includes decorating the classroom tree on our wall with ornaments the students created using paper, markers, glue, and glitter. It also helped to have a restock of packing tape and regular tape to adorn the classroom door outside of our classroom to display student art work, as well. As a class we decided that our door should have a theme of \"snowflakes, in which, the students decorated snowflakes and the teacher's wrote the cutest phrasing \"We are like snowflakes, all different, all special.\" This has helped our classroom feel festive for the holiday season is very welcoming to the students when they enter the classroom this morning. The students love looking at their work displayed on our door and finding their snowflake! Thanks to our refresh of tapes. \r\nWe still have many items that are trickling in, but BIG plans on how to use them. For example, our flannel board came today which Mrs. Jensen is super excited to use next week. We will be doing a book walk through the seasonal story \"The Mitten\", with flannel board characters, which I will be able to display for all the students to see on our new flannel board!! \r\n\r\nWe appreciate the holiday cheer that our packages coming in are bringing our students, the teachers, and our staff. Tis the season to share new things, decorate, and feel love from the community. Thank you all for your continued support of our Kinder students. We look forward to sharing photos, letters, and more with you as we continue to receive our classroom wishlist project donations!","fullyFundedDate":1763612951084,"projectUrl":"project/holiday-season-classroom-wishlist/9895801/","projectTitle":"Holiday Season Classroom Wishlist","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Jensen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7980938_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y141&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753800698592","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-garrett12"},{"teacherId":9567551,"projectId":9578734,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our DonorsChoose project.

Your kindness and support have made an incredible difference in the daily experiences of my students, and I cannot thank you enough for believing in the importance of interactive, engaging education. Because of your generosity, our classroom has been transformed into a space filled with curiosity, creativity, and excitement for learning.\r\n\r\nYour donation has also had a tremendous impact on student motivation. Many of my students thrive when they can learn through doing, and these new materials give them that opportunity every day. The hands-on approach keeps them engaged and eager to participate, even in subjects they once found challenging. It has been amazing to see how much more confident and enthusiastic they've become. They now look forward to each lesson, asking what they'll get to build, test, or explore next. This sense of excitement and curiosity is something every teacher hopes to see—and it's all thanks to your generosity.\r\n\r\nBeyond academic growth, these materials have also encouraged important life skills such as teamwork, perseverance, and creativity. Many of our activities now involve students working in small groups, which helps them learn to communicate effectively, listen to others' ideas, and solve problems collaboratively. When something doesn't work right the first time, they are learning to persevere, adjust their approach, and try again. These are lessons that extend far beyond the classroom walls—they are lessons that will serve them well throughout their lives.\r\n\r\nIt has also been wonderful to witness how these resources make learning more inclusive. Every student, regardless of their learning style or background, is able to find success through hands-on exploration. Some students who were once hesitant to participate now shine when they can physically engage with materials and demonstrate their understanding in new ways. Your donation has given every child the chance to feel capable, valued, and proud of their achievements.\r\n\r\nYour support reminds our students that there are people in the community who believe in them and care about their education. Knowing that others are invested in their success motivates them to work even harder and to appreciate the opportunities they've been given. As their teacher, I am deeply touched by your generosity and the positive example you've set for them. You have shown them that learning matters and that kindness can truly make a difference. \r\n\r\nFrom all of us—students and teachers alike—thank you once again for your incredible gift. You have not only provided materials; you have provided experiences that will stay with my students for years to come. Your generosity has made our classroom a place where learning is active, joyful, and full of discovery.
