I received stools which are a necessity for small group learning so the kids don't have to move heavy chairs around the room. I also received headphones which are always a necessity especially now when most of our learning and assessing is all digital. This allows for a quieter learning atmosphere. I also received a chromebook charging station which I love! This charges 13 chromebooks in a nice tidy way and uses up little counter space. All of these items were above my personal budget but very well needed for my classroom and students to benefit. These items will not only help the students this year but for many years to come as well. Thank you for your generousity and appreciation of the education field.","fullyFundedDate":1760401405678,"projectUrl":"project/literacy-focused-classroom/9824215/","projectTitle":"Literacy Focused Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Freehafer","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10310711"},{"teacherId":10310794,"projectId":9824552,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for helping me fund several new materials for our classroom. These materials will help me support my students with literacy on a daily basis. With your support I was able to get students headphones which they will use to do small group reading centers like listening to books and completing i-ready lessons. This will also support test taking. The stools you funded will help students fit better around my small group table when doing group. I was able able to get a variety of small group reading materials and games to peak the interest of students and bring variety to what we do in group. \r\n\r\nThe students were so excited when they saw all of the boxes of new items to be used in the classroom. They were so excited to help me unwrap the stools so they could get to trying them out faster. Students take pride in how they look and now straighten them at the end of each day. We use the writing boxes to help us come up with story ideas when we have free writing days. The students loved the silly cards they pulled out like a \"bear skateboarding at the zoo\". It made them excited to write. \r\n\r\nI am excited to continue to use these resources and find ways in which they increase a love for literacy in my classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1760411839045,"projectUrl":"project/supporting-literacy/9824552/","projectTitle":"Supporting Literacy","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Harrold","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10310794"},{"teacherId":7503861,"projectId":9021579,"letterContent":"The biggest impact the resources have had on myself and students is keeping materials organized and accessible to us, while I'm teaching and students are learning. They also look forward to cashing out for new erasers to add to their collections. \r\n\r\nThe students particularly love using the spacemen when they are writing and spending their paws for erasers. The shelf has made it easy to organize materials, and they are easily accessible when I need them. The spinning pen holder has made our most used materials easily accessible to students at the small group table, which includes the spacemen. 🥰","fullyFundedDate":1735493932557,"projectUrl":"project/inviting-learning-environment/9021579/","projectTitle":"Inviting Learning Environment","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Henry","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7503861_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1760525469922","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7503861"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_54486","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":392,"numTeachers":38,"percentFrplEligible":66,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":37,"percentWhite":26,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":58.2,"schoolId":54486,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Henry M Brader Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Henry M Brader Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/delaware/christina-school-district/henry-m-brader-elementary-school/54486"}
