These tablets have been especially helpful during small-group instruction, quick checks for understanding, and written responses to reading. When the tablets arrived, my students were immediately excited—they loved that they could write with the stylus and erase with the push of a button. My younger students were eager to use the tablets with the built-in primary lines to practice letter formation, spacing, and handwriting, while my older students enjoyed using the larger tablets to write full sentences and short responses.\r\n\r\nThese tablets have already transformed how students engage with writing, and we are continuing to build on that success. Students are currently using them to respond to comprehension questions, practice sentence structure, and show their thinking during lessons—all without the pressure of using paper and pencil every time. Your support has provided a long-lasting tool that encourages writing, independence, and engagement for every learner.","fullyFundedDate":1760750609914,"projectUrl":"project/replacing-paper-with-lcd-tablets-earth/9727477/","projectTitle":"Replacing Paper With LCD Tablets = Earth-Friendly Writing","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lowe","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3841378_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472829639626","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-slowe"},{"teacherId":9579619,"projectId":8475365,"letterContent":"My class and I are so appreciative of our color printer! \r\nBefore I received our color printer I would have send my copies to the copy room and I would not be able to get them until I had a break or at the very end of the day.
