I remember my teachers using scantron machines when I was in school & years later, I now use it with my students.\r\n\r\nOne of the reasons why I love the scantron machine is that it gives students a score quickly & it shows them what questions they got wrong. As the teacher, the scantron machine analyzes my class' score & tells me which questions they got wrong so that I can reteach the skill. \r\n\r\nThis is a big help because I no longer have to sit for an hour to grade tests for four different classes. Moreover, the machine also makes it easier for students to self-assess & make corrections.","fullyFundedDate":1785331551954,"projectUrl":"project/bring-back-the-scantron/10302995/","projectTitle":"Bring Back the Scantron","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Bailey","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5408255_orig.jpg?crop=1020,1020,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1554482384290","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/msbaileysclass"},{"teacherId":10541176,"projectId":10358234,"letterContent":"The snacks have been a great resource for my students, especially during longer class periods when they need a little extra energy to stay focused. We have been using them during class activities, group work, and independent assignments. One moment that stood out was seeing students enjoy a snack while working together on a lesson. It helped create a more comfortable classroom environment and allowed students to stay engaged in their work.\r\n\r\nMy students were very excited and grateful when they first saw the snacks. Many of them immediately smiled and were surprised that people had donated specifically to support our classroom. They were happy to have something available during the school day and appreciated knowing that others cared about their learning and well-being.\r\n\r\nOur next steps are to continue building students' reading, writing, and communication skills through classroom activities and collaborative projects. Students will be working together, sharing ideas, and completing assignments that help them become more confident and independent learners. Having snacks available will continue to help them stay focused, energized, and ready to participate throughout these lessons.","fullyFundedDate":1784651456790,"projectUrl":"project/creating-memories/10358234/","projectTitle":"Creating Memories","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vasquez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10541176_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1782765954307","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10541176"},{"teacherId":5408255,"projectId":10060496,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for investing in our English class and my scholars' interests in learning.
