Teachers have shared that their students were overjoyed when they first saw the new supplies, their excitement and curiosity filled the room! The Magna-Tiles have become a favorite for building and imaginative play, helping students strengthen teamwork and problem-solving skills. The table and chair sets have created cozy learning spaces for small groups, art, and reading activities.\r\n\r\nTeachers have loved displaying student artwork in the new art frames, giving children a chance to proudly showcase their creativity. The cleaning toys have been a fun and practical addition, encouraging students to take responsibility for their space and work together to keep their classroom tidy. The books, play tent, and storage bins have helped create organized, engaging, and inviting learning environments for students to explore and grow.\r\n\r\nOne teacher shared a wonderful project where her students used the Magna-Tiles to build a model of their community, then wrote stories about the people who \"lived\" there, a perfect blend of STEM and literacy learning.\r\n\r\nThese resources will continue to support countless lessons, projects, and joyful learning moments throughout the year. On behalf of all the teachers and students who are benefiting from your generosity, thank you for helping make their classrooms brighter, more creative, and more inspiring places to learn!","fullyFundedDate":1762267592762,"projectUrl":"project/new-teachers-need-new-things/9484402/","projectTitle":"New Teachers Need New Things!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Pappas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1862339_orig.jpg?crop=427,428,x0,y35&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1595780612771","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/e-pappas"},{"teacherId":9970097,"projectId":9239161,"letterContent":"The books you have donated to our classroom library have made a positive impact for all of our students.
