Our students are already putting these resources to excellent use, from practicing math problems on their whiteboards to drafting stories and illustrations. Just last week, students used the whiteboards to solve geometry problems in real time, sharing their answers with peers and correcting mistakes instantly, which made learning interactive, fun, and highly engaging. The pencils and erasers have helped them work neatly and confidently, while the eraser toppers have brought a bit of fun to every task.\r\n\r\nThe excitement when students first saw the new materials was unforgettable. Their faces lit up, and many exclaimed how \"cool\" and \"useful\" everything looked. Students eagerly selected their favorite eraser toppers, raced to their desks to try out the whiteboards, and couldn't wait to start solving problems and practicing writing. These supplies immediately sparked curiosity, enthusiasm, and collaboration, with students helping one another and sharing tips on how to use the materials effectively.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, you got a little peek into our classroom and into the daily magic of learning. Next, students will use these tools to tackle a larger project: creating illustrated story maps for language arts and solving multi-step math problems with their whiteboards before recording final answers. Your contribution not only supports essential learning but also fosters creativity, engagement, and confidence. We can't wait to share their completed projects with you!","fullyFundedDate":1733200593877,"projectUrl":"project/math-gear-for-greatness-equipping-stude/8975872/","projectTitle":"Math Gear for Greatness: Equipping Students for Success!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9414535_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x766,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1702673008876","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9414535"},{"teacherId":9414535,"projectId":8699797,"letterContent":"We are thrilled to share how your generous donation of markers, colored pencils, pens, highlighters, and crayons has already made a difference in our classroom. Our students are using these resources to bring their learning to life, from labeling diagrams in science to illustrating stories in language arts. Just last week, they created detailed geometric patterns using colored pencils and markers, connecting math concepts with creativity in a way that textbooks alone could never achieve.\r\n\r\nThe excitement when the students first saw the new materials was unforgettable. Eyes lit up, and many exclaimed how \"bright\" and \"fun\" their work could now be. Students who are typically shy or hesitant to participate eagerly volunteered to color, draw, and annotate projects. These supplies have sparked both motivation and collaboration, as students share ideas and help one another choose colors and designs.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, our donors got a little peek into the magic happening in our classroom. Next, students will use these materials to enhance their current project on ecosystems, creating labeled, colorful posters that demonstrate their understanding of plant and animal interactions.

With the ability to print in color, I can now create visually rich materials that support both language development and math understanding—such as anchor charts, graphic organizers, math vocabulary cards, and step-by-step guides. These visuals help make abstract concepts more concrete, and students are better able to follow lessons and retain key information. Technology like this helps bridge language barriers and allows me to differentiate instruction more effectively for a wide range of learning needs.\r\n\r\nWhat excites students most is seeing their work printed in color. We recently completed a math project where students designed \"real-world\" flyers using proportional reasoning, and the moment their projects came out of the printer in bright, bold colors, they were beaming with pride. One student, who had been hesitant to participate in class discussions, lit up when she saw her work printed and asked to take it home to show her family. Another student eagerly asked to print a bilingual math vocabulary booklet he had created, knowing it would help him—and his classmates—study more effectively.\r\n\r\nThis printer has made student work feel important and \"official,\" which motivates them to do their best. It's not just a piece of equipment—it's a tool that's helping students find their voice, celebrate their learning, and feel seen.","fullyFundedDate":1742927881171,"projectUrl":"project/printing-possibilities-with-paper-and-pr/9023771/","projectTitle":"Printing Possibilities with Paper and Precision","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9414535_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x766,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1702673008876","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9414535"},{"teacherId":9414535,"projectId":8699760,"letterContent":"Our new binders, dividers, and folders have already made a big impact in our classroom! As we focus on helping English Language Learners build foundational math and life skills, these organizational tools have become essential for keeping students' materials structured and accessible. We use the binders daily to store guided notes, vocabulary sheets, and visual aids. Each student personalizes their dividers with labeled sections for math topics, vocabulary, and real-world connections, which helps them take ownership of their learning. \r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the students were genuinely excited. Students asked if they could decorate their covers. It was a joyful, empowering moment that turned something as simple as a binder into a symbol of pride and belonging in the classroom.\r\n\r\nNext, we're working on a financial literacy unit where students track mock budgets, complete shopping simulations, and reflect on needs versus wants. These binders will continue to grow as a portfolio of their work, helping students connect math to real-life skills. We're so grateful to the donors who made this possible—you've not only supported our classroom organization but also helped our students build confidence and independence.","fullyFundedDate":1731523359301,"projectUrl":"project/organizing-for-opportunity-binders-fol/8699760/","projectTitle":"Organizing for Opportunity: Binders, Folders, Tab Dividers for Student Success!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lee","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9414535_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x766,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1702673008876","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9414535"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_47389","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":2072,"numTeachers":190,"percentFrplEligible":66,"percentAsian":11,"percentBlack":25,"percentWhite":36,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":14,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"10.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":66.3,"schoolId":47389,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cambridge Rindge & Latin School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cambridge Rindge & Latin School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/cambridge-public-school-district/cambridge-rindge-latin-high-school/47389"}
