It does the job but it takes a long time to prep and use. This label maker is easy to use and I can make labels much faster. This gives me more time to work on things like planning my lessons. The best part is it is easy enough for the students to help with. \r\n\r\nWhen we see things around the room that will need to be labeled I can quickly print and use it. Students will get to be part of the process and it will keep our room organized.\r\n\r\nVelcro is used in many places around the room. \r\nWe use it for name tags, l labeling, and keeping things in place that might need to move. A student needed easier access to their pencil and eraser. The Velcro helped attach a cup so that they would have it within reach.\r\n\r\nWe appreciate these items!","fullyFundedDate":1787166400517,"projectUrl":"project/print-it-and-stick-it/10401877/","projectTitle":"Print It and Stick It!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Nugent","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7789204_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1785077798674","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/nugent12"},{"teacherId":7789204,"projectId":10402024,"letterContent":"Thank you for funding this project for my students! \r\n\r\nWe have whiteboards around the room and the front board. All have their purpose and use. The mobile board really gives the opportunity to bring the learning to the students. To work out more problems with a small group. This board is also going to be a perfect space for centers. It can be moved anywhere in the room. So they aren't stuck staying in the same spot. They are very excited about this!\r\n\r\nI have two leaders who are the clean up crew for the afternoon. I only had one vacuum and \r\n sometimes it was tough to remember who had it last. Now that we have two options the cleaning gets done faster and without any disagreements. I love that it is cordless.

I will be able to zoom in and out, take video, and used a special pointer. This pointer automatically zooms in and follows as I move it. This will make it easier for students to follow along and provides a clear picture. \r\n\r\nThis project also funded laminating sheets. This is a product I use all year long. It protects \r\npapers so we can reuse them and provides parents projects that will last a lifetime! \r\n\r\nThank you again!","fullyFundedDate":1784754513240,"projectUrl":"project/technology-and-durability-for-the-classr/10382825/","projectTitle":"Technology and Durability for the Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Nugent","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7789204_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1785077798674","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/nugent12"},{"teacherId":7789204,"projectId":10385597,"letterContent":"This project has made such a big difference in our classroom.

The stools quickly became a go-to learning tool. Students use them every day for small groups, independent tasks, and partner work. I loved seeing a child who used to have trouble sitting through a literacy lesson stay focused the whole time while gently moving on a wobble stool. That movement helps them meet their physical needs without losing attention.\r\n\r\nWhen the stools first arrived, the classroom buzzed with excitement. Kids were eager to try them and immediately found them comfortable and fun. Beyond the initial enthusiasm, I've noticed improvements in focus, participation, and overall classroom endurance. The flexible seating choices make students feel respected, supported, and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nAs the year progresses, the stools will continue to support our hands-on, inquiry-driven projects and group discussions that are central to our gifted program. We're working on problem-solving and STEM challenges that demand sustained engagement, creative thinking, and teamwork.
