Instead of getting bogged down by lengthy arithmetic, they can focus on interpreting results, analyzing patterns, and developing problem-solving strategies. This shift supports higher-order thinking and allows students to tackle more complex, real-world applications with confidence.\r\n\r\nWhat excites students most about the newer models is their design. The features like upgraded displays, simple menu navigation, and graphing or table-generation capabilities make math feel more interactive and accessible. Students who previously struggled tend to respond especially well, as the technology reduces frustration and helps them check their reasoning step-by-step. These calculators empower students to feel more capable, independent, and motivated in their learning.","fullyFundedDate":1755750214671,"projectUrl":"project/scientific-calculator-for-math-success/9514913/","projectTitle":"Scientific Calculator for Math Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ojeda","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10100115"},{"teacherId":1324070,"projectId":9536469,"letterContent":"Thank you for your thoughtful donation. I now use the tablet purchased to project onto the board while being able to walk around the classroom to better help my students learn and interact with the lesson being taught.

I also can use it to take pictures of student work samples quite efficiently. The tablet allow me to be more mobile within my own classroom, which helps student learning.\r\n\r\nLastly, my students and I are very grateful for the purchase of the air quality monitors. This allows students to take air samples around their school and their community (in the near future).

The first wave of booklets were fully written in and when I had students review their own notes, they didn't have to fiddle with flipping back and forth, cross-referencing two different sources of materials, and figuring what matched between the sets. It's made the teaching and reflection process more streamlined, simple, and easy to follow.\r\n\r\nMy students are grateful and thankful for what seems like a low-tech solution, but sometimes what works in our classes is something simple and tried and true.","fullyFundedDate":1758218688187,"projectUrl":"project/presentation-binding-materials-for-math/9472773/","projectTitle":"Presentation Binding Materials for Math Students","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Yan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1329302"},{"teacherId":1329302,"projectId":9581372,"letterContent":"Thank you once again for the gift you have provided my students. The printer was delivered last Thursday (8/21) and immediately has been put to good use. Guided notes, assignments, graphic organizers, and simple notes have all been printed and distributed to students, giving them a more time to focus on learning and lessened their burden on trying to decipher what the smudge in the ink is trying to say. On the donor photos page, you'll see some side-by-side photos of my old printer on a really good day and the new printer on economy/toner saver mode. The difference is quite drastic on the lesson outline I printed out as I had to pause and try to figure out what I had written.\r\n\r\nOur first two weeks of school have finished and I am glad to be able to tell you that the new printer has been more impactful than expected. This year, we have had a lot of new students coming and out of our program well past the first few days of school and with a limited budget, we generally make only enough copies for students on our roster. When a new student comes into the class and lets me know that they were just added to my class a few minutes earlier, having this new printer allows me to make sure that I can equip the new student with the material they need instead of me telling them to wait, or asking my neighbor to watch my students as I run to the copy room and printing out another copy. This is normally a situation where one or two students gets added throughout the whole first month, but we've had additions of nearly every day this year.\r\n\r\nThe one complaint I have heard from students whispering under their breath as we transitioned to the new printer was, \"I can't blame the paper for not seeing the problem now.\" That complaint, is the best compliment we can give here.

Students gained access to a platform that was both familiar and exciting, making school a place where their passions and education intersected. By integrating esports into our curriculum, students strengthened teamwork and leadership skills by competing in teams, practicing clear communication, and building trust. They enhanced strategic thinking and problem-solving through games that required quick decisions, adaptability, and forward planning. This project also fostered inclusivity by creating a competitive space where students of all abilities could participate equally, ensuring no one was left out. Most importantly, it built confidence and a sense of belonging as students saw their contributions valued within a team and the broader school community. Beyond the immediate excitement of gaming, this project cultivated essential 21st-century skills — collaboration, critical thinking, digital literacy, and resilience — turning play into purposeful learning and empowering students to see themselves as innovators, leaders, and active participants in their own education.","fullyFundedDate":1723675741517,"projectUrl":"project/game-on-transforming-education-with-nin/8462130/","projectTitle":"Game On!
