My students' eyes lit up the moment they saw the new supplies—they were eager to explore, create, and express their learning in new and exciting ways.\r\n\r\nIn Social Studies, we used the art materials to design creative visual timelines and map projects about ancient civilizations. Students who are usually quiet in discussions found new confidence in expressing their understanding through drawing, color, and design. During our \"Pharaoh's Court\" activity, for example, they used the resources to create scrolls and artifacts that brought history to life. It was inspiring to see how art helped deepen their comprehension and engagement.\r\n\r\nThese materials have also encouraged collaboration, teamwork, and pride in their work. The classroom atmosphere feels even more vibrant and joyful, and my students are excited each time they get to apply creativity to their academic lessons. Thanks to your generosity, they are developing not just academic skills but also imagination, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.","fullyFundedDate":1739375271255,"projectUrl":"project/unlock-creativity-support-arts-socia/9067258/","projectTitle":"\"Unlock Creativity: Support Arts & Social Studies for Student Success!\"","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Jhoana Marie Banas- Bagsac","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9327203_orig.png?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1713931913814","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9327203"},{"teacherId":9349999,"projectId":9505773,"letterContent":"I have been using these binders every day to organize materials and student work!
