The shelf for binders has truly made a meaningful difference in my classroom. It has been incredibly helpful for organizing a small space in a thoughtful and intentional way, allowing materials to be easily accessible while keeping everything neat and functional. I couldn't love this piece of furniture more—it is so solidly constructed, and I feel confident that it will continue to serve students well for many years to come.\r\n\r\nThe fidgets and sensory tools have also had a huge impact. They have been especially helpful for this year's group of students who need additional sensory input to help them self-regulate, focus, and feel ready to learn. Having these tools available has supported a more inclusive learning environment and has helped students engage more successfully throughout the day.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generosity and support.

My students have already begun using the Jumbo Magnetic Money, Time and Money Charts, Magnetic Number Line, and Multiplication Posters, and they have quickly become some of the most high-traffic tools in our room.\r\n\r\nThe magnetic money has been especially powerful during our recent fractions and decimal lessons. During math this month, students worked to create fractions of a dollar. The jumbo jumbo coins and bills helped students see this concept more clearly. Students who previously struggled to identify coins were suddenly excitedly explaining their thinking and comparing different ways to make the same amount.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, these tools will continue to support our upcoming units on multi-step money word problems, multiplication strategies, and number relationships. Students will use the number line to help visualize adding and subtracting across larger numbers, and the multiplication posters will serve as daily visual supports during fact fluency practice. \r\n\r\nYour generosity has given my students access to visual, concrete tools that make abstract math concepts come alive. Because of your kindness, my students are becoming more confident mathematicians who can connect what they learn to the real world.","fullyFundedDate":1754705384171,"projectUrl":"project/hands-on-tools-for-financial-literacy/9541798/","projectTitle":"Hands-On Tools for Financial Literacy","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Allen","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9256873_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1754419341457","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9256873"},{"teacherId":9256873,"projectId":9541016,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity and support of our classroom project! My students and I are absolutely thrilled to be using the new Geometry Visual Guide Set and the Daisy Stackable Stools. These resources are already making a meaningful difference in our learning environment.\r\n\r\nThe geometry guides have become a daily tool in our math block. Students use them during independent work, small-group instruction, and even during collaborative problem-solving tasks. Instead of waiting for teacher support or feeling stuck, students are able to confidently use the guide as a reference, exactly what I had hoped for.\r\n\r\nThe stools have transformed our small-group space. We can now comfortably fit more students at the table without feeling crowded, which has allowed me to pull diverse groups for targeted reading and math instruction. The stools came already assembled and are amazing quality. Several students said things like, \"Wow we can all fit!\" Their excitement reminded me how much the environment impacts their engagement.\r\nAs we continue into upcoming units, these materials will support students through more complex geometry concepts, multi-step problem-solving, and deeper discussions in both math and English Language Arts. \r\n\r\nYour kindness has helped create a more supportive, flexible, and engaging classroom, one where students feel confident, included, and excited to learn.

Many couldn't believe that these beautiful, brand-new books were for them! They were eager to dive right in and began asking to read during free time, which made my teacher heart so happy.\r\n\r\nNext, we're using the books to launch our \"Readers Recommend\" project, where students will write and share short book reviews to help their classmates discover new favorites.

My students love to complete task cards during their independent work time because it gives them the opportunity to learn through movement. They are always begging for more task card activities! My students are also enjoying using the new pens as a reward for exceeding expectations and as a motivational tool to encourage them to revise and edit their writing. \r\n\r\nIn April, our class will begin an exploration of many impactful individuals with a variety of diverse backgrounds and experiences to learn from. My students will use the biography books to complete their research of these individuals and to grow their note taking and paraphrasing skills. Students will then use their research to write a biographical essay and complete a lap desk project which they will present to other classes as a culminating activity.\r\n\r\nAgain, thank you for your donations and your generosity.

It was awesome to have new hands on manipulatives to support them. They really enjoyed the magic writing boards to build their fine motor skills tracing lines and shapes. Then they were able to use them to start practing writing letters.\r\nI also had several kids that came to me already reading this year. The cvc word picture match game and the cvc sentence match games were perfect for them to use to independently practice reading during center time without a lot of time spent teaching them the center. They were easily able to figure it out and use it.\r\nStudents loves the real mini objects to practice first sounds with during small groups with para. Hearing the first sound in a word is one of the first skills we work on and some kids really thrive when they are able to physically see and maniupulate objects while working on the skill.\r\nAll of the materials will be such a help for my student and me this year.
