Because of your contribution, my students are experiencing meaningful growth in both ELA and Math, and our learning environment has become more engaging, comfortable, and effective.\r\n\r\nThe ELA and Math learning games you funded have already made a tremendous impact. These resources allow students to practice essential skills through hands-on, interactive activities that reinforce what we are learning in class. I have seen students who once hesitated to participate now eagerly engage with the games, collaborate with classmates, and take ownership of their learning. Their confidence is growing right alongside their academic skills.\r\n\r\nThe red flexible-seating chairs have also been a wonderful addition to our classroom. During small-group instruction and independent practice, students can choose a seating option that helps them focus and feel comfortable. This simple choice has helped increase participation, stamina, and overall enthusiasm during our learning blocks.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, the document camera has transformed the way I deliver instruction. Being able to model writing, demonstrate strategies, share student work, and walk through problems in real time has made lessons more dynamic and accessible for every learner. Students are more engaged, ask more questions, and interact more deeply with the content because they can clearly see and follow each step.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has created a more interactive, flexible, and supportive classroom environment one where students are excited to learn and proud of their progress. Thank you for believing in my scholars and for investing in their growth. Your impact is visible every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1760860080317,"projectUrl":"project/enhance-math-and-ela-minds/9840639/","projectTitle":"Enhance Math and Ela Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. B","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6528064_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1562699610146","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6528064"},{"teacherId":8958527,"projectId":9848699,"letterContent":"The items received through Donors Choose made a meaningful difference in my classroom by directly supporting student learning and engagement. Having access to these resources allowed lessons to be more interactive and hands-on, giving students opportunities to actively participate rather than passively observe. Students were excited to use the new materials, which increased their motivation and willingness to take academic risks.\r\n\r\nThese resources also helped create a more equitable learning environment by ensuring all students had access to the tools they needed to be successful. Students were able to collaborate more effectively, practice key skills, and deepen their understanding of concepts through meaningful activities. The materials supported different learning styles and helped reach students who benefit from visual, tactile, or interactive approaches.\r\n\r\nOverall, the donated items enhanced both instruction and student outcomes. They allowed me to better meet the diverse needs of my students while fostering a positive, engaging classroom atmosphere.

Because of your support, my students now have access to resources that are helping them grow as confident, engaged readers every single day.\r\n\r\nReading has always been important to me—when I was in school, books opened doors, sparked curiosity, and helped shape who I am today. I am intentionally bringing that same love of reading into my classroom by creating a space where students feel excited, motivated, and supported as they develop their literacy skills.\r\n\r\nWith the materials you helped provide, my students are spending more time actively reading and interacting with texts. I am also focusing heavily on writing to the text to strengthen comprehension. After reading, my older students complete daily written summaries of what they read. This practice helps them process information, identify key ideas, and truly understand the text rather than just reading the words on the page.\r\n\r\nYour donation is making a real difference—not just in their academic growth, but in their confidence as readers and writers. Thank you for believing in my students and for helping create meaningful learning experiences that will benefit them far beyond the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1760901968574,"projectUrl":"project/feeding-minds-and-hearts-through-reading/9838224/","projectTitle":"Feeding Minds and Hearts Through Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Perkins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10315889"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_103720","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":817,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":45,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":92,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":49.5,"schoolId":103720,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Charter School of New Castle on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Charter School of New Castle","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/delaware/delaware-department-of-education/family-foundations-academy-middle-school/103720"}
