In a classroom with limited space and many moving parts, having a secure, mobile cabinet has made setup and cleanup smoother for both me and my students.\r\n\r\nThe binders are helping us build organized math notebooks and portfolios. For students who often feel overwhelmed by papers and notes, having sturdy, clean binders gives them pride and structure.\r\n\r\nThe Crayola colored pencils have brought creativity back into lessons—whether we're color-coding steps in a problem or illustrating math models, students feel more engaged and confident.\r\n\r\nThe whiteboard class pack allows every student to participate at the same time. Quick practice, small-group work, and immediate feedback are now easier and far more interactive.\r\n\r\nYour support didn't just provide supplies, it provided opportunities, confidence, and access.

With their own copies in hand, students were able to annotate, revisit key passages, and take ownership of their learning. Through this book, they practiced valuable skills such as close reading, analyzing symbolism and figurative language, identifying themes, and making personal and historical connections. These are the kinds of foundational skills that will support them in all areas of literacy and critical thinking.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, reading is far more than silent, individual work—it's an active, engaging process filled with discussion, creativity, and collaboration. We use structured strategies like literature circles, group debates, and Socratic seminars to give students a chance to think deeply and share their voices. During our Gatsby unit, students explored character motivations, historical context, and the novel's lasting relevance in today's society. We even tied the novel to current events and music to show how themes of wealth, class, and longing still resonate. Having a full class set made these experiences possible—every student was able to follow along, mark the text, and contribute fully to our learning community.\r\n\r\nSome of the most rewarding moments came from students who don't typically see themselves as readers. One student who struggled with reading fluency was proud to finish the entire novel and shared how much they related to Gatsby's hope and determination. Another student who rarely participates in discussions led a powerful conversation on the symbolism of the green light and its connection to modern-day dreams. These are the breakthroughs that remind me why access to books matters so much. Your support didn't just provide a class set—it gave my students a voice, a chance to connect with literature in a meaningful way, and the confidence to express their ideas. From all of us, thank you for believing in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1742950131068,"projectUrl":"project/reading-materials/9171222/","projectTitle":"Reading Materials","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Quiroz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9968739"},{"teacherId":9371513,"projectId":9121827,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generous support, our classroom now has a fully stocked supply of feminine hygiene products and wet wipes and it's already making a quiet but powerful impact.

These resources are helping students feel more comfortable and confident throughout the day, which directly supports their ability to focus and stay engaged.
