The scissors, glue sticks, one-minute timers, and disinfectant wipes have already made a tremendous impact on our daily learning.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments happened the day we opened the boxes. As soon as my students saw the brand-new scissors and glue sticks—materials we often run short on—they lit up. Several students immediately asked, \"Do we get to use these today?\" The one-minute timers were an unexpected hit; they turned a simple tool into a classroom favorite. Of course, the disinfectant wipes have been essential in helping us keep our room clean and safe, especially after busy hands-on activities.\r\n\r\nWe put the new materials to work right away during a recent project where students created interactive foldables to show their understanding of a science topic. Having enough scissors and glue sticks for everyone meant students could focus on creativity and accuracy instead of waiting to borrow supplies. \r\n\r\nThese resources will help us stay organized, stay on schedule, and stay clean as we move through each project. The students already feel more confident knowing they have what they need to do their best work.\r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting our classroom. Your generosity didn't just provide supplies—it brought excitement, independence, and pride to my students' learning.","fullyFundedDate":1760553757277,"projectUrl":"project/stock-the-shelves-spark-the-minds/9779291/","projectTitle":"Stock the Shelves, Spark the Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. DerVartanian","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2934349"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_71796","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1071,"numTeachers":56,"percentFrplEligible":23,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":11,"percentWhite":72,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"19.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":75.8,"schoolId":71796,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Royal Oak Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Royal Oak Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/michigan/royal-oak-public-school-district/royal-oak-middle-school/71796"}
