Your generosity has already made such a meaningful difference for my 6th graders. The markers and colored pencils you provided have become a daily part of our learning, helping students show what they know in ways that feel natural and expressive to them. We recently finished a project where students illustrated important civics concepts, and it was incredible to see how confidently they shared their ideas when they finally had the tools to bring their thinking to life. For some of my students who don't always have access to supplies, this project felt empowering—they didn't have to worry about what they didn't have, and could simply focus on learning and creating.\r\n\r\nTheir reactions when the materials arrived were pure joy. Students were excited to choose colors, plan their drawings, and take pride in their work in a way I haven't seen before. The donated headphones have been just as impactful. They've allowed all of my learners—especially those who need audio support—to engage with readings, videos, and tests without distractions or stress. One student told me that having headphones \"made school feel calmer,\" and that small shift changed their whole day.\r\n\r\nAs we continue our current unit, these resources will keep opening doors for my students. They'll be using the supplies to create visual vocabulary posters and multimedia projects, and the headphones will continue giving them the focus and accessibility they deserve. Thank you for giving my students not just materials, but moments of confidence, joy, and belonging. Your kindness has truly touched our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1755800900157,"projectUrl":"project/bright-minds-bright-supplies/9619738/","projectTitle":"Bright Minds, Bright Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Thatcher","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8063768_orig.png?crop=456,456,x3,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1631567624973","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8063768"},{"teacherId":9799664,"projectId":9519811,"letterContent":"Thanks for your generosity and donations to start the year off clean and tidy!

This has saved me a lot of time pre-organizing kits for each build. I'm now able to simply print a parts list for students and they can retrieve them on their own. I've also noticed an increase in students' use of parts vocabulary since they are now responsible for locating them by name. And, oh my goodness, the magnetic trays are amazing! So many small round pieces have been saved from getting lost because of these!

The pre-sharpened pencils and pencil sharpener you provided have eliminated daily disruptions that used to interrupt our learning flow.

The facial tissue and disinfectant wipes have been essential in creating a clean, healthy classroom environment where students feel comfortable participating in discussions, group work, and collaborative activities without worry.\r\nWhen the supplies first arrived, my 8th graders were genuinely moved that strangers cared enough to support their education. They immediately understood that these weren't just basic supplies, but tools that show someone believes in their potential as learners and writers. The relief on their faces when they realized they wouldn't have to worry about having a working pencil or staying healthy in class was evident.\r\nThese supplies are setting us up for success throughout the year ahead. As we dive deeper into reading complex texts, writing essays, and engaging in classroom discussions, your donations ensure that my students can focus entirely on learning rather than on whether they have the basic tools they need.

The first day was all of the external features, less scary than the internal structures. After studying the \"Cells and Systems\" unit, they were able to identify many of the structures but did not have the scientific name down. Then day 2, the internal structures. They were reminded that the inside of the frog is very similar to what doctors would see during a surgery. There was a bit more apprehension as we passed back out their frogs.
