Your generosity has made a meaningful difference in the learning experiences of my students at our small, Title I school in Las Vegas.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, my students now have access to engaging books, art supplies, classroom rewards, and a color printer—resources that help bring learning to life. After spending much of the past year learning remotely, many students struggled with hands-on learning, collaboration, and motivation. These materials have helped re-engage them academically and socially, allowing them to explore, create, and connect with grade-level content in meaningful ways.\r\n\r\nThe color printer has been especially impactful. Being able to print maps, diagrams, and student work in color has improved comprehension and excitement for learning, particularly in subjects like social studies and reading. Students take pride in their work when it looks polished and professional, and this has boosted both confidence and participation.\r\n\r\nThe rewards and sensory tools, such as fidget toys, have also had a powerful effect—especially for students who struggle with focus or self-regulation. These items motivate students to stay on task, work hard, and practice positive behaviors.

We are using the mini whiteboards and whiteboard markers daily during lessons for brainstorming, problem-solving, and quick checks for understanding. These tools allow every student to actively participate and confidently share their thinking.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials arrived, students were excited to see that everyone would have their own learning tools to use. They were especially eager to use the sentence strips, which we've incorporated into reading and writing activities to help students build sentences, organize ideas, and collaborate with peers. Laminating pouches have allowed us to create reusable learning materials, saving time and giving students durable resources they can use again and again.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, students are more engaged and willing to take academic risks. Our next steps include using these materials for upcoming literacy and math units, where students will create hands-on projects, practice skills, and demonstrate their learning in meaningful ways.

Eyes widened, hands shot up, and little voices whispered, \"Is that for us?\" It was one of those moments that reminded me why teaching is such a gift: the pure joy of children knowing that people they've never met believe in them.\r\n\r\nSince then, these resources have become the heart of our daily learning. Just last week, we launched a project where students used the new math manipulatives and literacy tools during our centers. A quiet student who usually hesitates to participate surprised us all by eagerly explaining how she solved a problem. Her classmates clapped for her, and she beamed with confidence. That moment of pride was only possible because of the tools you gave us.\r\n\r\nThe excitement hasn't slowed down. Each day, my students ask, \"What are we doing with our new stuff today?\" Their curiosity and enthusiasm have grown right alongside their skills. Your gift didn't just provide materials, it created opportunities for teamwork, creativity, and the kind of hands-on learning that makes knowledge stick.\r\n\r\nOne of the most meaningful additions has been our new calm corner. With the bean bag, cozy pillowcases, and fresh stack of books, students now have a safe space to take a break, reset, and return to learning with a clear mind. I've already seen children curl up with a book in the bean bag, taking deep breaths and self-regulating before coming back to join the group. For many of my kindergartners, learning how to manage big emotions is just as important as academics, and this space has quickly become a favorite part of our classroom routine. I've also hung a classroom tree to turn our space into to a magical place, using the rainforest decor you so generously provided.\r\n\r\nThank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being part of our classroom. You've not only given us resources, you've given my students a message they'll carry with them: that they are worthy of support, their learning matters, and people believe in their potential.","fullyFundedDate":1746786243215,"projectUrl":"project/a-classroom-that-feels-like-home/9315101/","projectTitle":"A Classroom That Feels Like Home","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wessner","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10012560_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746296083632","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10012560"},{"teacherId":8123637,"projectId":5896719,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our classroom and our students.
