Because of your generosity, my students have the tools they need to fully participate in daily learning and hands-on problem solving.\r\n\r\nWe are using the dry erase markers every day for warm-ups, small-group discussions, and whiteboard problem solving. Students regularly work through chemistry questions together, explain their thinking, and revise their ideas in real time. Having plenty of high-quality markers for everyone has made these moments smoother, more engaging, and more inclusive. The padlocks help us keep shared classroom materials organized and secure, which saves time. The power extension cord has made it easier to run classroom demonstrations and instructional technology during lessons.\r\n\r\nThanks to this project, our next steps include deeper collaborative problem-solving, more student-led explanations at the board, and smoother transitions into upcoming chemistry labs and demonstrations. Your support has had a real, visible impact on our classroom, and my students benefit from it every single day.

Whether it's a fresh set of practice problems or a printed lab assignment, they're able to revise, reflect, and learn more efficiently.
