The visuals, activities, and structured practice keep students motivated and focused, especially during more challenging science concepts.\r\n\r\nMy students are more willing to participate, take academic risks, and try again when they make mistakes because the resources feel supportive rather than intimidating.

With the Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards, I was able to purchase things like engaging task cards that turned our state test review into something both meaningful and fun.\r\n\r\nMany of our donors might be used to technology in a more traditional sense—laptops, tablets, and apps—but what made this project so powerful was how the resources blended printable materials with active, interactive learning strategies. Instead of just sitting and filling out review sheets, my students were up and moving, working through task cards while playing games like musical chairs and ZAP! These aren't just games—they're powerful learning tools that kept kids thinking critically while having a blast.\r\n\r\nWhat excited my students most was the game-like format of the review sessions. They loved the surprise element of ZAP!—where they'd answer a question, but could also get a card that said \"ZAP!\" and lose points. It kept them on their toes and made reviewing feel like recess.\r\n\r\nOne student in particular, who usually struggles with focus, thrived during these review sessions. He eagerly jumped into each round, read questions aloud with confidence, and even helped coach his teammates through tougher problems. It was amazing to see his confidence grow just from changing how we reviewed the material.\r\n\r\nThanks again for investing in resources that made a real difference—not only in how we prepared for the test, but in how students felt about learning. You helped make review time something my students looked forward to, and that's a gift we'll all remember.","fullyFundedDate":1743715562121,"projectUrl":"project/enhancing-learning/9192992/","projectTitle":"Enhancing Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jacks","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7938449_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1720469571282","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7938449"},{"teacherId":9916305,"projectId":9225457,"letterContent":"The headphones provided through DonorsChoose have had an incredible impact on our math instruction.
