One student tentatively touched the clay and whispered, \"Wait, we actually get to use the real stuff?\" Seeing their eyes widen as they realized these resources weren't just for a one-time demonstration, but for their hands and their creativity, was a highlight of my teaching career.

The new drawing clipboards, large newsprint paper, and pan pastels enabled my students to be able to draw at a much larger scale than the standard notebook size paper. It gave students a chance to really capture finer details, and the larger format has so much more impact in their art.\r\nMy students were so excited that they could draw BIG! They were a little nervous that they were using new materials such as charcoal, and pan pastels. They took to their new medium rather quickly, and produced amazing artwork!\r\nNow we are learning about drawing anatomy, and large format charcoal drawings will be a perfect fit for these lessons to come.

We are currently using the new visual timers to keep track of their break times independently. The school supplies help daily with practicing writing skills such as job applications and writing their own personal information. \r\n\r\nWhen the boxes arrived the students were so curious with what was inside! They helped me open them and were excited to see the timers and different colors, already choosing which one would be theirs to use. The snacks were a big hit. My students will forget to bring home lunches or snacks and end up not eating the school lunch due to not liking what it is. The snacks helped keep them energized and focused throughout the day and it was a huge motivator to get them to help with setting up coffee orders. \r\n\r\nYour investment is truly paving the way for their future careers.

The games have also become a motivating factor for students to stay focused and complete their work, knowing they will have opportunities to engage in these activities.\r\n\r\nThe impact on our classroom community has been especially meaningful. Students are interacting more positively with one another, building stronger relationships, and developing confidence in social situations. The games have created a space where students feel comfortable talking, laughing, and working together. They have helped foster teamwork, encouraged participation from quieter students, and provided a fun, low-pressure way for everyone to feel included and connected.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, I plan to continue integrating these materials into lessons and team-building activities that support both academic and social growth.

Most recently, scholars used the materials while working on their children's book project, where they are applying science concepts in a creative and meaningful way. I was able to see students collaborating, referencing their resources independently, and taking real ownership of their work—something that doesn't always happen without the right tools in place.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the materials, their reactions said it all—there was immediate excitement and curiosity. Several students couldn't wait to get started and were eager to explore how the new resources would help them. It created a sense of pride and motivation that carried directly into their work.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, students will continue using these resources to revise and finalize their children's books, focusing on improving both their scientific accuracy and creativity. We're also working toward sharing these books with a wider audience, giving students an authentic purpose for their learning.

They've noted that the format helps them focus on the task at hand rather than feeling overwhelmed by a long list of problems. This shift in medium has clearly lowered their anxiety and allowed them to approach complex graphing tasks with much more confidence.\r\n\r\nWe truly appreciate your support in providing these resources.

My students are loving the new resources. I did an SEL activity where my Junior AVID students were writing a \"My Story Is...\" poem of themselves and it had to be accompanied with a painting. The students used the markers and the canvases to create their paintings. I also had another class period (Freshman ELA) use the canvases to paint with a partner in a \"Partner Interview\" activity, where they would swap the painting every 5 minutes and ask each other interview questions.\r\n\r\nThey were surprised when they saw the material because the classroom became more vibrant and comfy when they say the new notebooks, markers, and the bean bags. I passed out pastel notebooks, and some students said, \"This is my favorite color!\" They use these notebooks daily.\r\n\r\nAt the end of the year, I plan to create another lesson with my last class (my other Freshman ELA class) where they will create a \"My Story Is\" Poem using memories from this 9th grade year. They will accompany the poem with a painting, where they will use either paint or the acrylic markers. I want them to end the year off with a \"feel good\" project that involves writing, reflecting, and thoughtful sharing.","fullyFundedDate":1759198909184,"projectUrl":"project/strengthening-sel-and-sense-of-belonging/9772500/","projectTitle":"Strengthening SEL and Sense of Belonging","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Sadang","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8716958"},{"teacherId":9611638,"projectId":9701854,"letterContent":"While many of our donors use technology at home, tools like a classroom printer make a huge difference in how learning happens at school. Having reliable access to a printer allows me to quickly provide students with reading guides, graphic organizers, annotation pages, and differentiated materials that support all learners. Instead of waiting or going without, students have what they need in their hands right away — which keeps lessons moving and engagement high.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for students has been the ability to have their own printed materials. They love being able to annotate directly on texts, track evidence on printed charts, and use their new bookmarks to keep track of important passages. It may seem simple, but having tangible tools makes reading feel more interactive and personal.\r\n\r\nI've especially noticed students who struggle with organization or focus benefit from this technology.

These new texts allow us to explicitly teach critical thinking skills such as analyzing character development, identifying theme, tracking plot structure, evaluating evidence, and making inferences. Students are learning how to annotate meaningfully, cite textual evidence to support their claims, and engage in thoughtful discussions where they respectfully challenge one another's ideas. We also use the books to strengthen writing skills—students craft analytical paragraphs, build arguments, and practice organizing their thinking clearly and effectively.\r\n\r\nReading in our classroom is active and collaborative. You won't see students passively turning pages. Instead, you'll see them tracking suspects, debating motivations, mapping timelines, highlighting key passages, and filling out evidence charts. Sometimes we read aloud together to model fluency and analysis. Other times students read independently or in small groups, pausing to ask questions, make predictions, and connect the text to historical events and real-world issues. The room often buzzes with conversation as students test their theories and defend their interpretations.\r\n\r\nSome of my most reluctant readers have been especially impacted. Students who previously avoided reading are now eager to share predictions and point out clues they've noticed. One student who rarely volunteered earlier in the year now confidently leads discussions about character motives. Another who struggles with focus has become deeply engaged when tracking details and piecing together evidence. Watching students who once doubted their reading abilities become confident, thoughtful participants has been one of the most powerful outcomes of this project.\r\n\r\nYour support has not only placed books in students' hands — it has helped build confidence, critical thinking, collaboration, and a genuine love of reading.
