Many of my students come to school with limited access to basic materials, and this project directly addresses those needs in a respectful and culturally responsive way. Having consistent supplies—such as notebooks, pencils, art materials, and organizational tools—will help my students feel prepared, confident, and valued every single day.\r\n\r\nThis project is not just about giving materials; it is about creating equity, dignity, and opportunity. With the right supplies, my students can focus on learning, expressing themselves, and building the academic skills they need to succeed. It also allows me, as a teacher, to offer fair learning experiences without worrying about who has or doesn't have the tools required for an assignment.","fullyFundedDate":1760845980739,"projectUrl":"project/essential-school-supplies-for-native-am/9449483/","projectTitle":"'Essential School Supplies for Native American Students\"","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Benjie","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8274362_orig.jpg?crop=3024,3024,x0,y151&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1720403480890","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8274362"},{"teacherId":10234753,"projectId":9668709,"letterContent":"I want to sincerely thank you for funding my project, \"Enhancing My Teaching Through Online Professional Training.\" Your generosity allowed me to participate in an in-depth virtual training that has truly elevated my teaching practice.\r\n\r\nThrough this professional development, I gained new strategies in differentiated instruction, behavior supports, and student engagement. I am now using these new skills to create more structured, engaging, and inclusive lessons for all my students—especially those who need additional support. I've also incorporated interactive digital tools and visual aids I learned about in the training, which have made my lessons more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite classroom moments since completing the training was during a small group reading session. A student who often struggled to stay engaged was able to complete an activity confidently using one of the new visual strategies I implemented. Seeing the student's face light up with pride and hearing them say, \"I can do it by myself now!\" reminded me of exactly why continuous learning for teachers is so powerful.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, I feel more confident, capable, and inspired as an educator. I'm eager to continue growing in my understanding of individualized instruction and student-centered learning. I'm also looking forward to applying these new skills as we begin our upcoming unit on reading comprehension and critical thinking, where I can continue using what I've learned to help students connect ideas and express themselves more effectively.\r\n\r\nYour generosity didn't just fund a project—it empowered both me and my students to reach new heights.
