They collect many items for solders to send overseas as they are deployed away from their families. We make these snowman soup bags so they can go into the stockings that get stuffed for the troops. We also give our kids the opportunity to go and stuff the stockings with their families if they are able. Every student can give back easily as we help them get started with the notes and the snowman soup bags. We hope they will want to continue this as they get older and continue giving back to the their communities. It all starts with their parents or us teachers to help mold better citizens for our future. Thank you for helping us give our kids this opportunity.

These resources have allowed my students to create vibrant, meaningful projects that connect language learning with the diverse cultures of the Spanish-speaking world. One especially memorable project involved researching a Spanish-speaking country and creating a colorful cultural display featuring its flag, landmarks, traditional clothing, food, and important celebrations. Students labeled their work in Spanish and proudly shared what they learned with their classmates.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the new materials, they were thrilled! They immediately began discussing the colors they would use and the projects they hoped to create. Having access to color makes cultural images, maps, flags, vocabulary cards, and classroom displays more engaging and easier to understand. The coloring materials also give students a creative way to process new vocabulary, remember important details, and express their understanding. Even students who are sometimes hesitant to speak in class become more confident when they can first communicate their ideas through art and visual design.\r\n\r\nNext, students will use these materials for a project exploring holidays and traditions throughout the Spanish-speaking world. They will create illustrated vocabulary pages, cultural posters, and short presentations in Spanish comparing these traditions with their own. These resources will continue to make language and culture feel vivid, relevant, and exciting for my students. We are truly grateful for your generosity and for helping me provide creative, hands-on learning experiences that students will remember!","fullyFundedDate":1778272782743,"projectUrl":"project/bringing-spanish-to-life-with-colorful-l/10275461/","projectTitle":"Bringing Spanish To Life With Colorful Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Acker","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4354963_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1504028462870","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/dr-acker"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44508","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":732,"numTeachers":69,"percentFrplEligible":51,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":49,"percentWhite":25,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":7,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":37.7,"schoolId":44508,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Pierre S DuPont Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Pierre S DuPont Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/delaware/brandywine-school-district/pierres-dupont-middle-school/44508"}
