The toy organizer and Iris storage drawers have completely transformed our ELA routines. Students are using them to grab pencils, crayons, and erasers independently, which has built so much confidence. We also use the toy organizer to put the legos and magnetic tiles for fun Fridays! The anchor chart pads have been just as impactful, giving us space to create daily visuals during reading and writing lessons that students can reference throughout the day. Having these charts visible has helped my kids retain strategies, stay engaged, and feel proud of the learning we're building together as a class.\r\n\r\nThe reactions on the first day we unpacked the new materials were priceless. My students' eyes lit up when they saw everything neatly organized. It wasn't just excitement over new supplies—it was excitement about ownership, independence, and being part of a classroom family.\r\n\r\nThanks to you, our ELA lessons now flow with less stress and more joy. Instead of wasting time hunting for materials, students are diving right into reading and writing projects with enthusiasm. Our next big step is working on expository writing, and I can't wait to see how the organization and anchor charts continue to empower them to take risks as authors. You didn't just fund supplies—you gave my students confidence, independence, and a learning space that feels like home. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.","fullyFundedDate":1751318087848,"projectUrl":"project/rebuilding-my-classroom-after-a-season-o/9407077/","projectTitle":"Rebuilding My Classroom After a Season of Healing","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Martinez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8955155_orig.png?crop=272,272,x57,y15&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1684936168345","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8955155"},{"teacherId":4373389,"projectId":8420006,"letterContent":"My class and I are so grateful for your contributions to this project!
