As a teacher, I love to provide an environment that shows organization, structure, and efficiency. Materials from this project, definitely helped to enhance our Chromebook cart routine!\r\n\r\nA storage cart is absolutely necessary since it stores and powers all technology! Just recently, our beloved and well-maintained previous cart was no longer charging, and retired to cart heaven. With short notice and just a couple of months left in the school year, we were issued an older, well-used and abused cart that was kept in storage. It was functional, but not pretty. Fortunately, these wonderful materials added new life to this cart! New horizontal and number panels make the Chromebook cart look like new! The white cable clips, and holders will keep all cords in order and under control. Now instead of loose, free and wild cords, they are contained and in place - and less likely to get damaged. So happy to know that my learners can efficiently retrieve and return their Chromebook equipment! \r\n\r\nSince I teach in a high poverty area, I can rely on friends, family and strangers for support. This is why your help is extremely appreciated, and really makes the difference!

The story was one of the reading selections in our school's \"March Madness for Reading\" competition. Students were excited to be gifted a favorite book. \r\nThe book is subtitled, \"So Many Ways to Say What We Mean\". It has provided a great message to students by addressing how differences in communication need to be valued and better understood. There is even a page that features a phrase in actual Braille. A day or so later, a student pointed out a plaque at our school that has information in Braille. We have since had several conversations about the varied information in the book. \r\nAfter reading and discussion, students were given the modeling clay. They enjoyed the tactile experience and sharing their creations with their classmates. Some students asked their friends to guess what they had made. I have realized that we can also have structured Art lessons with the modeling clay because it can be blended to make different colors!\r\nThank you so much for your interest and donation to support my First Grade students.\r\nThey learned that these items were a donation, and felt happy that others care about their educational experiences.

The noise canceling headphones block out noise, so the user can experience a sense of inner peace and calm down.
