This letter is so overdue, but I sent one when the project was first funded, but it was my first time using Donor's Choose, so I wasn't sure if you received it. \r\n\r\nThank you, so much, for your incredibly generous donation last school year. Getting to allow students to use quality materials makes instruction go easier, and for students to take more pride in their work. Students love using dry erase board and markers instead of pencils and paper, and having actual Exxpo markers made a huge difference--the students were so excited to get to use them instead of the generic ones the school supplies that don't work well and deplete quickly. \r\n\r\nYour selflessness and support made last school year that much more successful and I cannot thank you enough.

With these texts, I was able to support both 3rd and 5th grades in my school by creating discussion questions to pair with these books for students to have in-depth conversations about the diverse world around them. One particularly poignant moment was when we were reading a text about Autism and hearing so many students share about the Autistic people in their life whom they care for deeply. Another moment arrived when reading about Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins performing the Capitol Crawl and a student shared about the need for more public understanding of invisible disabilities like his own. These texts, paired with guided instruction, provide a space for students to see themselves and their friends and families represented and help me teach students how to develop a more empathetic worldview. For that, I am deeply grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1743095312493,"projectUrl":"project/diverse-books-for-diverse-students/9206277/","projectTitle":"Diverse Books for Diverse Students","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Mazur","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3700989_272x272.png?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1469637399664","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3700989"},{"teacherId":5847664,"projectId":8736708,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your donation to support our learning.

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your generous contributions to our classroom. The new resources, including headphones, whiteboards, snacks, and pencils, have made a significant impact on our learning environment. Recently, we embarked on a project where students collaborated to create presentations on various topics of interest. The moment they first saw the new materials, their excitement was palpable. The students eagerly grabbed the headphones to listen to educational videos, and the whiteboards became a hub of creativity as they brainstormed and mapped out their ideas. It was a joy to witness their enthusiasm and engagement with the project. Looking ahead, our next steps involve refining their presentations and sharing them with the class. The students will be using the whiteboards to outline their key points and practicing their speaking skills with the help of the headphones for audio feedback. Additionally, the snacks you provided have been a wonderful treat during our brainstorming sessions, keeping everyone energized and focused. Thank you once again for your support and for giving our students the opportunity to thrive in their learning journey.","fullyFundedDate":1728832430196,"projectUrl":"project/inclusion-classroom-that-truly-feels-lik/8658432/","projectTitle":"Inclusion Classroom that Truly Feels Like Inclusion!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tayla","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9670656_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723676733716","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9670656"},{"teacherId":9797465,"projectId":8865290,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for contributing to my classroom.
