The speaker allows me to play clean, motivating music that sets the tone for each activity and helps students stay focused and enthusiastic.\r\n\r\nThe students are absolutely thrilled to have music as part of their daily PE routine. They love being able to move to the beat, suggest songs for warm-ups, and feel like they're part of a more dynamic environment. The speaker has created a sense of excitement and anticipation every class—students come in asking, \"What's on the playlist today?\"\r\n\r\nOne of the most rewarding parts has been seeing how some of my quieter or more hesitant students have come out of their shells. They're now more eager to participate. This simple piece of technology has helped turn PE into a space where every student feels included, energized, and ready to give their best effort.","fullyFundedDate":1760693828295,"projectUrl":"project/pe-and-the-sound-of-success/9643800/","projectTitle":"PE and the Sound of Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. S.","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3346203_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755922830075","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3346203"},{"teacherId":6630204,"projectId":9523132,"letterContent":"On behalf of the entire sixth grade team here at Cherryland we wanted to express our gratitude for your contribution to this project. With your donation, this project has come to life and all 6th graders now have planners! \r\nSince receiving their planners, they are more organized with assignments and their schedule. I've received a few thanks from various loved ones saying how much it helps at home too knowing what assignments are coming up and what we have been doing in class. \r\nSo once again, thank you so much for your support and helping better prepare my students for tomorrow and beyond!","fullyFundedDate":1758856665949,"projectUrl":"project/planners-to-help-us-be-prepared-and-orga/9523132/","projectTitle":"Planners to Help Us Be Prepared and Organized!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Phelan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6630204_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1676386145284","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/blairphelan"},{"teacherId":1893153,"projectId":9097150,"letterContent":"I cannot tell you just how much this project has streamlined processes in my class. Students who were already excited for music class were able to enjoy music videos, rhythm reading exercises, classic concerts, and movement activities. With the television and stand, I was able to present a google slides presentation tailored for each of the 21 sections of students that I work with. \r\n\r\nThe true benefit of this project was convenience and organization. The television and stand allowed me to avoid using a projector where students would walk in front of the screen, students would hurt their eyes, and also allowed me to avoid needing to move a media cart back and forth when I wanted to project. The learning environment has truly been improved, and students have developed a strong love for music and instruments. Thank you again for your incredible support in fostering this love of music.","fullyFundedDate":1741897097976,"projectUrl":"project/crystal-clear-quality-for-clever-classro/9097150/","projectTitle":"Crystal Clear Quality For Clever Classroom Concepts","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Daniels","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1893153_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1470966984842","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1893153"},{"teacherId":6630204,"projectId":8804455,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for helping this project come to life! \r\nWe have just finished reading Millionaires for the Month and are currently reading Simon B Rhymin' as a class.

They are always engaged when Legos are involved. This is especially true for older students who get less hands on experience as academic rigor increases. These legos have provided hands on learning in engineering and science. Students have been able to learn about gears, levers, axles, and pulleys to build cool creations.\r\nThese Legos are a critical element in our elementary Makerspace that will provide ongoing use for GATE, afterschool programs, science fair projects and lego clubs to enrich student learning. These experiences promote curiosity, problem-solving and collaboration with their peers.

I see different grade bands every trimester.\r\nEveryone is able to see the TV. I can show images, demonstration videos and sample lessons on screen. In addition to equitable access to instruction, students have been using this media platform as a way to share their own projects. The classroom setup allows them to speak and show their creations.
