The one picture even shows a student's beautiful smile while using the mirror to support articulation skills. Another student was extremely happy to be able to pick out her favorite color for a highlighter to use when practicing literacy skills. It warmed my heart how happy she was for a highlighter because she knows I care for her and want her to have all the supplies she needs.\r\n\r\nThe next steps are to continue to support!

These materials have become vital tools in our classroom, and they have already sparked creativity, improved engagement, and helped foster a sense of responsibility in my students.\r\n\r\nHow we're using the new resources:\r\nThe notebooks and pencils have been integrated into nearly every aspect of our daily lessons. Just this past week, my students used their new notebooks to take notes on our new unit. They were tasked with processing the information given to them and forming opinions about classic time periods and modern times. The excitement in the room was palpable as each student began writing, completely immersed in their focused note-taking process. The pencils, which might seem simple, helped them express their ideas with precision and enthusiasm—whether they were taking notes or providing their opinions about the questions asked..\r\n\r\nStudent Reactions:\r\nThe moment the students received their new notebooks and pencils was unforgettable. They were thrilled! The look of joy on their faces was priceless as they immediately started putting their names on the covers and jotting down ideas, and sharing them with their peers. It was a powerful reminder of how something as simple as a pencil can unlock a world of imagination and learning.\r\n\r\nThe Next Steps:\r\nMoving forward, the notebooks will play a central role in our ongoing lessons. We're currently starting a unit on \"Classic Retellings,\" and each student will use their notebook to document their research and reflections. They'll be asked to write daily entries about the books they are reading, and in the next few weeks, they'll collaborate to persuade others on which version of the story is better. Your donation will continue to be an essential part of this process, helping each student track their progress and reflect on their learning journey.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you for your generosity. You've provided my students with the tools they need to learn, grow, and dream, and for that, we are deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1746698826730,"projectUrl":"project/tools-for-tomorrow-empowering-students/9159054/","projectTitle":"Tools for Tomorrow: Empowering Students with Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cannon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7684553_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1698762809150","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7684553"},{"teacherId":7654990,"projectId":9238414,"letterContent":"I want to thank all of you for your generous contributions!

The pre-sharpened Ticonderoga pencils have been in constant use for brainstorming sessions, sketching layouts, and jotting down creative ideas during team meetings. Even the Velcro fasteners have become a go-to resource for organizing equipment and creating interactive displays that keep our projects running smoothly.\r\n\r\nOne group recently used the tripod dolly to film a promotional video for a mock business they developed in class, and the results were incredible they couldn't stop talking about how \"real\" it looked.

Students are now printing vibrant, professional-grade marketing materials, business proposals, and design portfolios that truly reflect their hard work and vision.\r\n\r\nThe USB-C hubs have been equally game-changing, allowing students to connect devices, transfer large files quickly, and collaborate on projects without the technical hiccups we used to face. This has opened the door to more complex, team-based assignments where students can focus on creativity and problem-solving rather than worrying about tech limitations.\r\n\r\nOne group recently used the printer to print thier final portfolio for our art show and other students used it to print out their business brochure.

This has been more true this year than ever before. Many of them come to high school completely unprepared and have begun to shut down as a result.
