Doing math on their desk/whiteboard is so fun for them and it helps me to quickly see who understands what I am teaching and who needs more assistance. I can quickly see what misconceptions the students have and make adjustments. The rolling whiteboard has been an amazing tool. I use it daily either right next to the promethean board to make notes on or to do problems and for my younger students I move it over to the smaller group table I have and use it during instruction.","fullyFundedDate":1755704272635,"projectUrl":"project/dry-erase-essentials/9610566/","projectTitle":"Dry Erase Essentials","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Fasulo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1173487_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1489096529662","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1173487"},{"teacherId":484706,"projectId":9316919,"letterContent":"Thank you again for the quiet seating materials. The tennis balls for our chairs have been so helpful in quieting the loud screeching noises made whenever chairs were moved. Moving seats and chairs are so much easier now. Thank you for cushies for their tushies! The kids love sitting on them on the floor while reading, working, or exploring activities. They also enjoy using the cushions on their student seats and also the rockers to make a comfortable flexible seating spot. This encourages the students to complete their work, and make good choices while working so they can select flexible seating.

Our students loved counting out 100 beads and stringing them to make necklaces. They made patterns and enjoyed the creativity and fun this activity brought. The students also enjoyed playing various games that reinforced their math skills. Our families were able to play together, have fun and realize that math is fun and not a burdensome task.

We have read the books in 3 different groups based on their level. We have taken turns reading aloud, listened to the books through audiobooks and listened to others reading aloud. \r\nI am so happy that the students do not have to sit down on regular school chairs to read. They can lay down on the floor if they want or make themselves comfortable on the special seats. This is helping them get more excited about reading! \r\nThe students are even asking when we will get new books to continue our book club together!

Not sure which is their favorite because they're all going to quickly! Students can't wait to participate, practice, and complete assignments to earn their sticker! Thank you for helping them \"stick\" to their goals to improve their learning! \r\n Thank you also for the refill tanks for our printer! We've been so dependent on our printer because our copying machines are always malfunctioning and need repair. The parents also appreciate the colored copies of assessment results I can provide which simplifies viewing their child's progress.

Now my students can complete their assignments neatly. They were also excited to receive new sharpeners to use for their colored pencils, as their manual sharpeners never work as well. \r\n In addition the students loved the variety of vinyl stickers that they received. They earn the stickers for reading with the teacher, completing assignments, for writing stories, good behavior, and improving in math and reading assignments. It's a joy to see them searching for the perfect sticker for their folder or water bottle, or for their siblings or parents. \r\n Lastly, thank you for the large zippered plastic bags to help us keep our supplies and books organized in our desks and in our classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1735673194418,"projectUrl":"project/sharpen-it-stick-it-color-it-and-bag-i/8769391/","projectTitle":"Sharpen It, Stick It, Color It and Bag It!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Yonekawa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/dyonekawa"},{"teacherId":813388,"projectId":8863656,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for helping my students obtain headphones and mouses to use with their chromebooks.

I am grateful for donors like you that allow us to meet the needs of students.\r\n\r\n Students are now able to use I-ready, IXL, Schoology and other learning platforms and more comfortably move the curser with the mouse and listen to directions or narrations with the earphones.

Another activity was to build a roadway/trail for a car, and they also had to build a garage to park their car in.
