The new technology has transformed our classroom into an engaging, interactive learning environment where students are more motivated than ever. With access to these resources, they are developing critical thinking skills, improving their problem-solving abilities, and gaining confidence in their learning. Many of my students come from backgrounds where technology at home is limited, so having this access in school has been a game-changer for them. They are now able to explore new concepts in ways that were previously out of reach, making their education more meaningful and relevant to their futures.\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting aspects for my students has been the ability to engage in hands-on, interactive lessons. Whether they are using the technology for research, practicing essential skills, or collaborating on projects, they are actively participating in their learning like never before. The ability to visualize concepts, receive immediate feedback, and work at their own pace has boosted their enthusiasm and understanding across multiple subjects.\r\n\r\nSeveral students, in particular, have truly thrived with this new technology. One student, who previously struggled with reading comprehension, has gained confidence by using interactive reading tools that provide support and encouragement. Another student, who was hesitant to participate in class discussions, now eagerly contributes after using digital resources to organize and express thoughts more clearly. Seeing their excitement and growth reaffirms just how invaluable this technology is.\r\n\r\nThank you for your generosity and for believing in the potential of my students. Your support is not just providing technology—it is opening doors, inspiring confidence, and shaping the future of these young learners. We are deeply grateful for your kindness and commitment to education.","fullyFundedDate":1741099905321,"projectUrl":"project/amplify-minds-music-therapy-to-spark-cr/8985039/","projectTitle":"Amplify Minds: Music Therapy to Spark Creativity and Wellness","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Boga","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9090096_orig.jpg?crop=272,272,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723153110328","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mr-boga"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_77159","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":329,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":51,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":72.2,"schoolId":77159,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Norfleet Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Norfleet Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/missouri/raytown-school-district-c2/norfleet-elementary-school/77159"}
