Each student was able to select a title to read during our \"drop everything and read\" session. They were engaged and full of joy. I cannot thank you enough.

With each student having their own device, they can practice skills at their individual level, work through interactive activities, and receive immediate feedback. This has helped them build both speed and accuracy in their daily math work.\r\n\r\nThe real-time data has been especially valuable. I can instantly see which skills students have mastered and where they may need extra support. This allows me to adjust instruction quickly and form small groups that focus on specific areas of growth. During these small-group sessions, students participate in targeted practice that deepens their understanding and reinforces essential skills.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting changes has been the shift in student motivation. Students have become genuinely invested in their own progress. They enjoy tracking their scores, noticing when their accuracy improves, and celebrating the number of questions they answer correctly. This increased ownership has led to consistent growth in math fluency across the class.","fullyFundedDate":1746786410387,"projectUrl":"project/tablets-to-increase-fluency/9214109/","projectTitle":"Tablets to Increase Fluency","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hayden","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9614139_orig.jpg?crop=1943,1943,x264,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1722358892657","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-h-math"},{"teacherId":9842062,"projectId":9098491,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous donation towards my 4th grade classroom in Detroit.
