I immediately started using all of them! I have truly enjoyed utilizing the jump ropes during recess times. I notice the relationships I have with the students have improved because of the increase in interactions. The relationships between the students have improved due to the use of the jump ropes. They are more patient and encouraging towards one another. \r\n\r\nI have started using the Perler beads and art supplies individually with students and can see their creativity shine. They are extremely excited to use the supplies and I've noticed the positive impact it's made on how they feel throughout the day. \r\n\r\nI am looking forward to using these items as we start the new school year. I will be outside with my students as much as possible with the jump ropes. I will also be starting an art club with the art supplies, helping the students learn positive ways to cope with emotion. \r\n\r\nI couldn't do any of these things without you.

The students are also no longer worried about other people taking their things.\r\n\r\nI set the drawers up while the students were on Spring Break. They were excited to see them when they returned. They have enjoyed being able to quickly find what they need. They are also more confident when they leave the room as they know that no other students will have access to their materials. This ability to stay organized will enable them to complete more projects to practice what they have learned.","fullyFundedDate":1772738749110,"projectUrl":"project/help-we-need-to-organize/10116684/","projectTitle":"Help!

Having snacks available ensures that students who may come to school hungry have something to help them get through the day so they can focus on learning instead of their empty stomachs. It has created a more supportive and caring environment where students know their needs matter.\r\n\r\nThe cleaning supplies have helped us keep our classroom healthy and comfortable, especially during cold and flu season. Being able to quickly clean desks, sanitize hands, and take care of small cuts with band-aids helps students stay safe and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nThe extra pencils have also been incredibly helpful. Students no longer have to worry if they forgot a pencil, which helps lessons start smoothly and keeps everyone engaged.\r\n\r\nFinally, the stickers and motivational cards have been a fun way to recognize effort and encourage students. Small moments of encouragement can make a big impact, and these tools help build the positive classroom community we work hard to create.\r\n\r\nBecause of this project, my students feel supported, cared for, and better prepared to learn each day.
