The supplies you funded—markers, colored pencils, paper, caddies, permanent markers, Flair pens, gel pens, filler paper, disinfecting wipes, and the Teachers Pay Teachers gift card—are already being used daily in meaningful and exciting ways.\r\nHow we're using the new resources:\r\nThese materials have been especially powerful during our interactive notebook work and lab investigations. Students now have access to high-quality writing and coloring materials to build detailed diagrams, label processes, create data tables, and construct visual models of scientific concepts. The Astrobrights paper has quickly become a favorite for creating foldables and graphic organizers, helping students visually differentiate important ideas. The storage caddies keep each lab group organized and responsible for their tools, making transitions smoother and giving us more time for hands-on learning.\r\n\r\nNext steps in our current work:\r\nRight now, students are beginning a project involving lab journals, scientific diagrams, and model building. The materials you provided will allow them to create color-coded data tables, detailed illustrations, and organized notebooks that help them deepen their understanding. The TPT gift card is helping me access differentiated resources that support every learner, from those who need extra scaffolding to those ready for enrichment.","fullyFundedDate":1757541267499,"projectUrl":"project/my-high-school-classroom/9417587/","projectTitle":"My High School Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Aragues","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9799848"},{"teacherId":9973954,"projectId":9202416,"letterContent":"Your donations provided tools and materials to begin a discussion and practice within our club to do mindful journaling. Students were elated to use the stickers to decorate their journals with and doodle or draw on them as well to remind them the importance of taking care of their mental health. Students were given a starting prompt for their first journal practice and the guidance books are now available for any students to reference or seek out additional prompts for journal writing. We hope to carry this practice through to next school year for all club members and to make it a weekly practice and become a norm for us in our mental health awareness club. Thank you for helping us provide strategies that will hopefully become a meaningful tradition in our club.","fullyFundedDate":1743551548777,"projectUrl":"project/journaling-for-change/9202416/","projectTitle":"Journaling for Change","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Danieri","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9973954_orig.png?crop=468,468,x245,y245&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742577707765","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9973954"},{"teacherId":9600316,"projectId":9120859,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting my classroom and making our CPR and AED certification project a reality.\r\n\r\nYour generosity helped us bring in CPR manikins and AED trainers—tools that have opened a door many of my students never thought they'd walk through.

My students, many from disadvantaged backgrounds, are now learning lifesaving skills that will help them become certified before they even graduate high school.\r\n\r\nIn my classroom, I work hard to prepare students for both college and careers by bringing science to life. We study blood typing, urinalysis, bone fractures, and suturing. Now, thanks to you, we've added CPR and AED training, skills that are essential in the medical field. You've made this new skill accessible, and in doing so, you've helped level the playing field for these disadvantaged students. \r\n\r\nSome of my students dream of becoming EMTs, nurses, or doctors.

These skills are critical not only for their success on the exam but also for their future college coursework, where strong scientific literacy is essential. By having access to these resources, my students can approach the AP Exam with greater confidence, knowing they have the tools they need to succeed.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of my students and myself, I sincerely thank you for investing in their futures.
