It is because of your donations that my middle school students are able to share materials without me worrying about them sharing germs as well. Using laminated materials makes it so that they are reusable rather than single use materials. The students love any sort of task cards, or materials, that they can pass around rather than just worksheets. Your generous donations enabled me to laminate many materials and then also allowed those materials to be cleaned in between each use. Once the students are finished with the materials, I use Lysol wipes to clean the materials and the area, as well. This gives me a peace of mind knowing that the materials are clean and ready for the next group of students. It also cuts back on the spread of germs from student to student.\r\nI love teaching and connecting with my students and it's donors like you that enables me to bring fun projects to life for them. It is school community supporters like yourselves that allow me to do so.\r\nThank you very much, and my students and I hope that your generosity comes back to you 10 times over.","fullyFundedDate":1757683061234,"projectUrl":"project/fresh-new-materials-for-back-to-school/9478987/","projectTitle":"Fresh New Materials for Back to School!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. DiSimone","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9634043"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_23596","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1177,"numTeachers":113,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":7,"percentWhite":51,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":33,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":83.3,"schoolId":23596,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lakeland Copper Beech Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lakeland Copper Beech Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/lakeland-central-school-district/lakeland-copper-beech-mid-school/23596"}
