My students were so excited to see that we now had the supplies needed to begin creating projects that we had voted on for this school year. Your generosity provided Cricut supplies that supported our creativity multiple times this school year. Your donation allowed us the opportunity to engage in authentic experiences. \r\n\r\nThe Cricut materials helped us make designs for hats and aprons for several clubs at school. We were also able to create class shirts to wear for school after school clubs, school spirit days as well as for our school field trips. Your support helped us make our designs for so many things. We were also able to use the supplies for labeling personalized cups, labeling plants and more to come.\r\n\r\nThank you for your contribution in helping us create and learn the process of using technology along the way. Your generosity will continue to make a lasting difference in our classroom, and we are truly grateful for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1770995199877,"projectUrl":"project/using-our-cricut-to-support-steam-on-dem/9978399/","projectTitle":"Using Our Cricut To Support STEAM On Demand!!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Black","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp253478_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472151525646","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-black4"},{"teacherId":253478,"projectId":9808776,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our community garden learning project. When my students saw all of the boxes and materials they were so excited to see that our time in the garden was getting ready to take off! Your kindness have provided our students the opportunity to experience learning in a way that was engaging, meaningful and so much fun. Your support provided so many useful tools and resources that we will continue to use over time. We were able to have an outdoor classroom where students were comfortable to observe, discuss and journal about their discoveries.\r\nOne highlight is our butterfly release. We were able to watch butterflies go through their phases of development and were able to release them into our community garden to continue the life cycle. My students have benefited tremendously through your generosity. Through gardening and exploration, they were able to strengthen their teamwork skills as they worked in the garden. They were able to learn to care for living things and were able to see their labor of love develop through the growth of so many flowers, vegetables, and herbs in the garden. \r\nOur next steps will be to continue this plan in the next school year as we will add more seeds to the garden and nurture those seeds over time.","fullyFundedDate":1765997596353,"projectUrl":"project/our-community-garden/9808776/","projectTitle":"Our Community Garden!!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Black","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp253478_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472151525646","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-black4"},{"teacherId":8003432,"projectId":10132163,"letterContent":"Thank you for helping me fund this wonderful project! I am writing this thank you letter full of gratitude and excitement for the upcoming school year. This project means a lot to me as I learned how to hand sew and machine sew at a very young age. It is a valuable life skill that I will argue is a dying art. Not only will students practice the form element of art by creating a 3D work they will also have a cute momento from their sewing lesson. \r\n\r\nAs the school year winds down I am happy to have all of the materials I need to kick off the next year strong! We will have an intro to art lesson and the following week we will jump into the basics of hand sewing and begin working on our hand sewn pop tarts. \r\n\r\nOnce again I couldn't do this work without your support!
