Students have already begun exploring the new activities, from working together on interactive storyboards to engaging in hands-on learning challenges that stretch their creativity. Your support has helped create a space where reading feels magical, and learning feels like an adventure.\r\n\r\nWith these new additions, students are embracing the library not just as a place to find books, but as a space to think, build, collaborate, and dream. These resources are helping students grow as readers, thinkers, and problem-solvers skills that will stay with them far beyond the library walls.

The library will buzz with teamwork, problem-solving, and celebration as students test their creations. Their faces lit up the moment they saw the new tools, many couldn't believe these materials were now part of their everyday learning. Your contribution transformed an ordinary day into one filled with possibility and joy.\r\n\r\nAs we continue using these resources, students are already asking, \"What can we build next?\" We will begin a series of rotating STEM stations where students will experiment with coding, simple machines, and design challenges to deepen their understanding of key concepts. These tools have opened the door for hands-on exploration that makes learning feel like an adventure. Thanks to your generosity, our students are not only building projects, but they are also building confidence, creativity, and a sense of what they can achieve.

Your support has been instrumental in helping us launch this new and exciting endeavor. These resources have already made a tremendous impact, allowing our youngest learners to engage in meaningful, creative, and joyful exploration as they build their language skills.\r\n\r\nThanks to your donation, students are not only experiencing the novelty of new, high-quality materials, but they are also able to practice transferring their learning from English to Spanish in more natural and engaging ways. The centers you helped make possible are strengthening their confidence, providing hands-on opportunities to apply language in context, and fostering curiosity and collaboration among peers.\r\n\r\nWe are truly grateful for your partnership and belief in our mission. Your generosity is helping us provide an enriched, equitable bilingual experience for all students, and we look forward to continuing to share the positive outcomes your investment makes possible.

Your kindness made it possible for us to create a calming corner equipped with a weighted stuffed bear—affectionately named Cotton Candy by the students—as well as special seating stools and soft, foldable cushion chairs. These additions have truly transformed our learning environment into a more comforting, supportive, and student-centered space.\r\n\r\nOur students are already benefiting from these resources every day. The calming corner has become a safe spot where children can regulate their emotions, take mindful breaks, and return to learning feeling refreshed. The new stools and cushion chairs have also made a tremendous difference during small-group work and independent reading time, giving students flexible seating options that help them focus and feel comfortable. Your generosity is not only meeting a need but is making our classroom feel like a welcoming home for every learner.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in our students and investing in their success.

They love any opportunity to write on whiteboards, and these sturdy, easy-to-move boards have quickly become one of our most valuable classroom tools.\r\n\r\nWe use them daily during rich, bilingual math tasks where students work in pairs or small groups to solve complex problems. These \"vertical non-permanent surfaces,\" as we call them, make thinking visible — students are up, talking, reasoning, and engaging deeply with each other's ideas. It's amazing to see how confident they've become as mathematicians who can explain their reasoning out loud and in writing.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments came during a partner math challenge where each group tackled the same problem in a different way — the buzz of collaboration, discussion in both English and Spanish, and the joy of discovery filled the room. The whiteboards made it possible for everyone to contribute, revise, and share ideas freely.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to expand the use of these boards beyond math. My students are excited to use them for vocabulary practice, reading comprehension discussions, and even social-emotional reflections. Thanks to your generosity, we've not only elevated engagement but also built a culture of curiosity and collaboration in our classroom.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of our hearts — gracias for believing in our students and supporting their learning journey!","fullyFundedDate":1755740849299,"projectUrl":"project/building-our-thinking-classroom-through/9607661/","projectTitle":"Building our Thinking Classroom Through Vertical Non-Permanent Surfaces","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Quinn","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9719193_orig.jpg?crop=897,897,x0,y17&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1725711288283","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9719193"},{"teacherId":7561749,"projectId":9601895,"letterContent":"When the new basketballs, soccer balls, and kickballs arrived, my students were beyond excited. They could hardly wait to get outside and play. The very first day, students immediately started organizing their own games and inviting classmates who don't always join in. It was amazing to see everyone included and having fun together.\r\n\r\nThese recess balls are already making a big difference. Students are more active, they're practicing teamwork, and even using problem-solving skills when setting up their own rules and games. For example, one group created a \"rotating teams\" system so that everyone had a chance to play, which showed just how much they've grown in leadership and cooperation.\r\n\r\nThe next step is watching them build stronger friendships and learn how to work together through play. I can already see their confidence and excitement carrying back into the classroom after recess.\r\n\r\nYour generosity didn't just give us sports equipment—it gave my students joy, teamwork, and a reason to look forward to every day.

After reading, we often connect the story to STEAM challenges or digital literacy discussions, encouraging students to apply what they've learned.
