I am so excited to share the resources from this project with my students. It means the world to me that they will have books they will enjoy to read over the summer. Reading books over the summer helps prevent summer slide, the loss of learning, that can take place during the summer months if students do not engage in educational activities. Reading for pleasure creates lifelong learners, boosts vocabulary, academic performance, and empathy. Embarking on a summer reading adventure is a great way to explore new worlds and build strong literacy habits.","fullyFundedDate":1778521007422,"projectUrl":"project/summer-reading/10258332/","projectTitle":"Summer Reading","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Vazquez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3448496_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472093826230","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsmvazquez"},{"teacherId":1452750,"projectId":10155160,"letterContent":"Thank you for your kindness and support.\r\nThank you for supporting this project.\r\n\r\nI'm excited that my art students who have expressed an interest in art can have access to these amazing sketch books.\r\n\r\n The sketch books have many different assignments to help build a strong art foundation.\r\n\r\nI also remind my students there are many art careers like coding, creating apps, designing clothes and more\r\n \r\nHaving access to the sketch books helped my students realized the importance of practicing and sketching ideas too.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nI also requested glitter crayons which are consumable and add sparkle to their designs.\r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting these important resources.","fullyFundedDate":1776447808970,"projectUrl":"project/we-like-to-sketch/10155160/","projectTitle":"We Like to Sketch","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Debi London","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1452750_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1528343950226","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1452750"},{"teacherId":8749721,"projectId":9996435,"letterContent":"I am writing to share the incredible impact your generosity has made on my students at James S. Hunt Elementary, a Title 1 school where access to cutting-edge technology is often a dream, not a reality. Thanks to you, that dream is now alive in our media center every single day. The Sphero Indi robotics kits you funded have completely transformed how my students understand coding, computer science, and even artificial intelligence. Instead of staring at a screen trying to grasp abstract logic, they are physically arranging color tiles on the floor, watching their robots respond, and literally building sequences with their hands. That immediate, sensory feedback is everything. My students aren't just memorizing commands. They are seeing cause and effect in real time. They are learning that coding is a language of logic, patterns, and creativity. And because I rotate every 3rd through 5th grade class through the media center, your gift isn't helping just one group. It's reaching every single upper elementary student in our school. \r\n\r\nWhat excites my students most is the moment they realize they are in control. When a little robot named Indi follows their color pattern perfectly, I hear gasps, cheers, and usually someone shouting, \"I did it!\" They love experimenting with how Indi \"sees\" color and reacts—slowing down for yellow, stopping for red, zipping forward for green. That playful discovery is their first, unforgettable lesson in artificial intelligence. They don't just feel like users of technology. They feel like builders. One of my quietest 4th graders, a girl who rarely raises her hand in class, lit up the moment she debugged her own tile sequence. She spent twenty minutes testing, failing, adjusting, and grinning the whole time. Another student, who often struggles with reading, has become our go-to \"Indi expert,\" helping his peers troubleshoot their code with confidence I've never seen from him before. These are the moments you made possible. You didn't just give us robots. You gave my students permission to think like creators, problem-solvers, and future engineers. Thank you for fueling their futures—one colorful tile at a time.","fullyFundedDate":1776694067408,"projectUrl":"project/indy-500-racing-into-coding-and-ai/9996435/","projectTitle":"Indy 500: Racing into Coding and AI","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Pinder","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8749721_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1765730332133","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8749721"},{"teacherId":4533626,"projectId":9910198,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our Wise Prize Den: Rewards That Inspire! project.
