All my second graders appreciate the items that we were able to get because of you. \r\n First, the movable easel has been a game changer for whole group and small group instruction. The students love to come up to use it whether it be writing something or moving a magnet on it. This has increased participation because they want to use the easel. It has also made my life so much easier to create anchor charts and move them around the room to be accessible to everyone.\r\n Prior to this year I can't even begin to tell you how many times I would be interrupted during a lesson to sharpen someone's pencil. However, now with this new automatic pencil sharpener, my lessons can go uninterrupted and students are taking responsibility for their materials. This minimizes distractions in the classroom and allows my students to focus more on the task at hand.\r\n From my students and myself, thank you very much for donating to our classroom and making a huge difference in their learning environment! We appreciate you so much and wish you a great holiday season.","fullyFundedDate":1755531524725,"projectUrl":"project/engagement-with-an-easel/9455474/","projectTitle":"Engagement with an Easel!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Alves","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7604658_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752113294265","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7604658"},{"teacherId":7760175,"projectId":9255248,"letterContent":"My students love to read the Primary Phonics decodable books in my literacy intervention classroom.

This donation has allowed students that do not have the resources to gain much experience with technology outside of school, an opportunity to have practice with it.\r\n\r\nThere are many educational computer-based programs that my students use in school, particularly Lexia, which is phonics based and adaptive to their level of literacy skill, as well as Read Naturally which allows them to practice fluency. Lexia is both visually appealing, which the students love, and engaging. Read Naturally provides a wide variety of nonfiction stories that cater to their interests. The students are really enjoying these programs.\r\n\r\nAgain, I want to thank you for your donation.
