Your generosity means more to my students and me than words can fully express.\r\n\r\nThe resource you helped provide is a comprehensive math bundle from Teachers Pay Teachers that strengthens foundational math skills aligned to kindergarten through fifth grade standards while remaining flexible enough for students of any age. Because of your support, my students will be able to slow down, practice intentionally, and truly understand math—many of them for the very first time.\r\n\r\nThrough step-by-step lessons and structured workbooks, students will have the opportunity to build confidence as they see themselves making progress. Small victories—like solving a problem independently or saying, \"I get it now!\"—are powerful moments that can completely change how students see themselves as learners.\r\n\r\nAll of my students receive Tier 2 or Tier 3 intervention and benefit greatly from repeated exposure, clear modeling, and supportive practice. This curriculum is specifically designed for special education and small-group instruction, allowing me to meet each student exactly where they are and help them move forward without shame or pressure.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, our classroom will continue to be a place where math feels safe, achievable, and empowering. Your donation helps turn frustration into confidence and confusion into understanding, giving my students the tools they need not only to learn math but also to believe in themselves.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in my students and for helping them experience success in math.","fullyFundedDate":1769190249756,"projectUrl":"project/math-to-mastery/10024107/","projectTitle":"Math to Mastery","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ostrom","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3938481_orig.jpg?crop=1970,1970,x176,y1048&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1634676254909","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3938481"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_61208","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":757,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":32,"percentBlack":9,"percentWhite":17,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"29.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":84.0,"schoolId":61208,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Elitha Donner Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Elitha Donner Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/elk-grove-unified-school-district/elitha-donner-elementary-school/61208"}
