The new printer has made a meaningful difference in how my students learn and engage with their work. Many of my students struggle with reading, writing, and fine-motor skills, so using creative apps on their Chromebooks helps them express their ideas more easily. They can design posters, draw digitally, and complete art activities with support from our program staff by giving them another pathway to show what they know.\r\n\r\nWhat excites them most about the new printer is seeing their digital creations turn into real, printed artwork. For many of my students, holding their printed Growth Mindset posters, drawings, and craft projects gave them a huge sense of pride. Seeing their work displayed on our classroom walls has boosted their confidence and motivation to keep creating.\r\n\r\nOne student who usually hesitates to participate in class projects became eager to design her own poster once she saw her classmates' printed artwork. Other students who struggle with writing found success using drawing apps, allowing them to create detailed art that he was thrilled to print and show others. These small but powerful moments of success have helped them feel valued, capable, and excited to learn.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has brought creativity, independence, and joy into our classroom. Thank you for helping my students shine.","fullyFundedDate":1758122270503,"projectUrl":"project/creative-artists-need-ink/9713889/","projectTitle":"Creative Artists Need Ink","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bustria","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6604950_orig.png?crop=357,357,x39,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757831438193","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6604950"},{"teacherId":4247290,"projectId":9262523,"letterContent":"This year, students in economics shared their actual start up idea and pitched it to local credit unions and banks in a competition.
