They proudly placed their work inside and the bigger space was easier for their little hands. It was a wonderful moment of ownership and independence for my kindergarteners.\r\n\r\nWe now use the mailboxes daily to organize finished work and take-home papers. Students are learning to manage their materials independently, which has made our routines smoother and communication with families easier. \r\n\r\nThe extra space in each cubby has made my job easier as well. It allows me to grab papers out easily. Sometimes, with larger papers, like construction paper, it was difficult to get them to fit in the old mailboxes. The bigger cubbies have allowed those papers to fit easily. Thanks to your generosity, this simple resource is helping my students build responsibility and feel proud of their hard work every day.","fullyFundedDate":1760913617973,"projectUrl":"project/building-responsibility-through-classroo/9737367/","projectTitle":"Building Responsibility Through Classroom Mailboxes","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Osborne","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp5110396_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1524667112022","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/alyse-osborne"},{"teacherId":6305651,"projectId":9607856,"letterContent":"It has been amazing to see the impact a pair of headphones can make for my students.
