Your gift has made a remarkable difference in how I'm able to teach and how my students are able to learn.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, this technology has allowed me to move around the room while still presenting lessons on the board. Instead of being tied to my desk or the front of the classroom, I can work side by side with students while continuing to guide the lesson for the whole class. This flexibility makes it easier to check in with individual students, keep the class engaged, and make sure everyone is supported in real time.\r\n\r\nThe students are especially excited by the interactive nature of this setup. They love seeing their ideas projected instantly on the board, whether we're solving math problems together, sharing reading responses, or reviewing classwork. It makes their learning more dynamic and engaging, and they take pride in being able to contribute directly to what the whole class sees.\r\n\r\nI've noticed that some of my quieter students, who might not always raise their hands in a traditional setting, are more willing to participate with the iPad. The technology gives them a comfortable and creative way to share their thoughts. One student in particular has grown more confident in math because she can demonstrate her problem-solving on the iPad while I walk her through the steps, and then we celebrate her success as a class when it's projected on the board.\r\n\r\nThank you again for making this possible. Your generosity has given us tools that not only enrich our lessons but also build confidence, participation, and excitement in my students every single day.","fullyFundedDate":1746785480165,"projectUrl":"project/5th-classroom/9251792/","projectTitle":"5th Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Salinas","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8562297_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746567673143","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8562297"},{"teacherId":1163988,"projectId":9090675,"letterContent":"Thank You for support for my project.
