We have and are still using the doctors' coats and kits when we have free choice. At first, we used the materials to enhance our human body unit by being doctors as we learned about the human body. The students are empowered to believe that this could be a career choice for them. Now we have the materials to choose when there is free choice time. The students loved being doctors to their peers and to stuffed animals. It has made the unit come alive for the students as they contemplate this as a future career. \r\nThe math manipulative have been instrumental in helping my students to review concepts that they are struggling with in math. We use the ten frames, number bonds, and place value chart often. They are core to our curriculum and always on the board for the students to use. I am looking forward to using the 3D shapes with my students in our upcoming math module. \r\nYour donation has made our learning come alive in math and in our knowledge units. The joy on my students' faces when they put on the doctors' coats and the understanding that comes after seeing math concepts being made clear has really enhanced our learning this year. We could not have done this without your generosity. Thank you for being a part of the learning taking place in my classroom, but more importantly being a part of my students success in their future in the medical field and as mathematicians.","fullyFundedDate":1758850028087,"projectUrl":"project/future-doctors-and-mathematicians-need-y/9670677/","projectTitle":"Future Doctors and Mathematicians Need Your Help!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Nguyen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1333691"},{"teacherId":255302,"projectId":9556110,"letterContent":"Thank you very much for the donations of Stem science stations.

Your donation has completely transformed my reading intervention program. The Secret Stories use the social and emotional experiences that children understand and relate to, making the stories enjoyable for students. My students find many of the Secret Stories hilarious and enjoy listening to them. They are eager to start new lessons because they look forward to a new story. \r\n\r\nThe students love that the vowels are superheroes who can say their name (long vowel sounds) and that they have secret identities: \"short and lazy\" (short vowel sounds). The silent e pattern has always been challenging for my students, but now they know the story of Mommy E. When Mommy E is at the end of a word, she tells the other vowel, \"You say your name!\" Then she covers her mouth and won't talk. Now, students learn this phonics pattern very quickly; if they forget, I cover my mouth, and they remember! This, of course, has led to an increase in their reading fluency, spelling, and self-esteem.","fullyFundedDate":1738778995680,"projectUrl":"project/secret-stories/8873659/","projectTitle":"Secret Stories!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Marioni","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp844930_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x510,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1734721729993","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/844930"},{"teacherId":4582116,"projectId":9056623,"letterContent":"I hope this message finds you well.
