This may seem like a simple addition, but it has made such a difference in how I teach and how my students learn. As a 6th-grade science teacher, I am constantly moving around the classroom, helping students, answering questions, and checking for understanding. Having a whiteboard that I can move around the room allows me to bring the lesson directly to my students instead of always having them look toward the front of the classroom.\r\n\r\nWe have been using our new whiteboard to review science vocabulary, draw diagrams, work through questions, and explain concepts in smaller groups. It has been especially helpful when students need a little extra support or when I want to quickly show an example without interrupting the entire class. My students enjoy being able to see ideas explained right at their tables, and it has made our lessons more interactive and engaging.\r\n\r\nAs we continue learning about ecosystems, food chains, and how living things interact with their environment, our whiteboard will be a great tool for drawing models, making connections, and working through ideas together. I love having another way to reach my students and make science easier to understand. Thank you for supporting my classroom and giving us a resource that we will continue to use for years to come. Your generosity truly makes a difference!","fullyFundedDate":1785198230764,"projectUrl":"project/ideas-in-motion-learning-on-the-go/10272135/","projectTitle":"Ideas in Motion: Learning on the Go","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Christina Tucker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9274524_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1784359409293","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/christina-tucker"},{"teacherId":9274524,"projectId":10386175,"letterContent":"A special thank you to The DonorsChoose Community for helping make this project possible!

The cardstock, Crayola washable paint, Shuttle Art watercolor paint set, and paintbrushes give students different ways to explore colors and develop their ideas. Students can use the cardstock to sketch designs and experiment with watercolors before painting their pumpkins with washable paint. When students first saw the materials, they were ecstatic. In our Title I classroom, having these supplies available means every student can participate without families needing to purchase art materials.\r\n\r\nNext, students will plan their pumpkin designs, practice painting techniques, and bring their ideas to life through painting rather than carving. Along the way, they will practice sharing materials, encouraging classmates, and taking responsibility for their workspace. Students will also explain their design choices and reflect on how planning and perseverance helped them complete their projects.

We have the opportunity to learn alongside wonderful groups of students and gain a sense of what learning designs impact their thinking and learning. We have found that learning experiences where there are opportunities for students to engage in authentic, collaborative, hands-on learning experiences have the greatest impact on student's growth and learning. \r\n With this in mind, we are designing projects where students are able to conceptualize, design and build products that are aimed to positively impact their community. These learning experiences require materials and tools that fall well outside of what we can typically afford with our teaching budget.

We are beginning our unit with The Outsiders, a story that has been especially relatable for my 7th graders. Many of my students come from a low-income community, and the book's themes of friendship, family, identity, belonging, and navigating difficult circumstances have opened the door to conversations that feel very real to them. Having classroom copies of the novel has made it possible for us to read together, pause for discussions, annotate, and really focus on understanding the characters and their experiences rather than simply trying to get through the text.\r\n\r\nOne of the most rewarding parts has been seeing students who do not always consider themselves \"readers\" become interested in the stories. Students are especially enjoying discussing the characters and debating their choices, and some have been excited to read ahead because they want to know what happens next. For students who may struggle with reading, having physical books that we can work through together has made the experience feel much more manageable and less intimidating. \r\n\r\nThese books are helping me create a classroom where students can build their reading skills while also feeling represented, heard, and genuinely interested in what they are learning. Thank you to every donor who made this possible. Your generosity has given my students books they can hold, question, and connect with, and that has already made a meaningful difference in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1787638674951,"projectUrl":"project/building-a-library-that-inspires-7th-gra/10419756/","projectTitle":"Building a Library That Inspires 7th Grade Readers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vargas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10343314_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1762489276842","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10343314"},{"teacherId":3941217,"projectId":10339228,"letterContent":"Our students felt very valued when they found out that people they don't even know donated supplies to their school.

So much of our everyday work is created on paper, so getting to work on a surface used by professional artists makes a project immediately feel more special. As my student Mario put it, \"It feels like I'm making something that will last longer and lets me be more of an artist.\"\r\n\r\nWorking on canvas encourages students to slow down, plan more intentionally, experiment with layering and technique, and take greater pride in creating a finished piece. It also gives them something lasting that they can proudly display at school or take home to their families.\r\n\r\nMy students use art to explore their identities, cultures, communities, and the issues that matter to them.

They can add fine details, layer color, create bold lines, and experiment with techniques that are difficult to achieve with some of our traditional classroom materials. They also give students more control, which can make a huge difference when they have a very specific vision for their work.\r\n\r\nAs one of my student artists shared, \"I like acrylic markers because I can actually get the details to look the way I picture them in my head. I can make the piece feel painted.\"\r\n\r\nThat ability to bring an idea to life is so important in our classroom. My students use art to explore their identities, cultures, communities, and the things they care about.

Students can find the supplies they need more independently and transition between activities with less confusion. The labels and organized spaces are especially helpful for my multilingual learners because the visual cues reinforce vocabulary and provide the structure and predictability they need to feel confident and successful.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to continue building independence and responsibility.

Having plenty available encourages students to try something, make changes, and keep working without worrying that a mistake will ruin their artwork. It gives them more freedom to experiment and build confidence as artists.\r\n\r\nThe tape is also getting plenty of use in our yearbook class! My yearbook students use it to hang photographs, organize and sort images, plan page ideas, create displays, and temporarily arrange materials while we work through the yearbook design process.

One of our first projects will be creating student identity displays where students will design and assemble personalized projects that showcase their interests, goals, and strengths. These supplies will help make those projects more engaging and durable.\r\nSince students have not yet returned for the new school year, they have not seen the materials in person. However, I am excited to introduce these new resources when school begins in August. I know many students will be thrilled to have additional supplies available for creative projects and hands-on learning experiences. Having the necessary materials ready before the first day of school helps create an inviting classroom environment and allows students to jump right into learning.\r\nAs we prepare for the upcoming school year, the next steps for my students will focus on building classroom community, developing collaboration skills, and establishing strong learning routines. Students will participate in introductory STEM challenges, writing activities, and project-based learning experiences that encourage teamwork and problem-solving.
