Because of your kindness, our classroom now has a fresh, abundant supply of large chart paper, and it has transformed the way my students collaborate and learn every single day.\r\n\r\nWhen the large boxes of chart paper first arrived, my students were genuinely thrilled. Seeing the oversized pads instantly sparked their curiosity, and several of them immediately asked, *\"Are we going to get to write on those?\"* There is something uniquely exciting to a student about moving away from small individual desks and getting to write big on a blank canvas. That excitement set a fantastic tone for our upcoming lessons.\r\n\r\nWe have already put these resources to great use. Recently, during a group reading and analysis activity, I assigned each small group a specific section of a text to analyze. Equipped with markers and a sheet of your chart paper, the students gathered together, brainstorming key themes and organizing their thoughts visually. Once completed, we posted all the charts around the room for a \"gallery walk,\" allowing students to learn from one another's insights.\r\n\r\nHaving these large displays visible around the classroom provides ongoing support for my students. They constantly refer back to our anchor charts during independent work time, which boosts their confidence and independence.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, our next step is to use the chart paper for our upcoming group research projects. Students will work in teams to gather evidence, draft main arguments, and present their findings to the entire class using their charts as visual aids.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has given my students a platform to make their thinking visible, work collaboratively, and take true ownership of their learning. We are so grateful for your investment in our classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1783028274595,"projectUrl":"project/charting-our-learning/10342302/","projectTitle":"Charting Our Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Foote","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10532867"},{"teacherId":9529935,"projectId":10271804,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your incredible support!

The big green leaf rug has created a warm, welcoming space where students love to gather for read-alouds. The kids were so excited when they first saw their new classroom! Our learning stations are neat and organized with the colorful caddies, storage bins, mesh zipper pouches, and desktop organizers. The standing desk, robot pencil sharpener, and star reward jar help our daily routines go smoothly.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and for helping me glow up our 2nd-grade classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1781466480617,"projectUrl":"project/from-middle-school-heights-to-second-gra/10271804/","projectTitle":"From Middle School Heights to Second Grade Lights","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Maldonado","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9529935_orig.jpg?crop=2981,2981,x624,y2454&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1782021081588","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/maldonad0"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_55236","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":340,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":70,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":7,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":88,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":2,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"12.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":81.0,"schoolId":55236,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Tome Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Tome Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-mexico/los-lunas-school-district-1/tome-elementary-school/55236"}
