Your contribution has made a tremendous difference in our classroom. As soon as the new materials arrived, my students' faces lit up with excitement—they couldn't wait to explore and use them. We immediately put them to good use during our literacy and math centers, and it has been incredible to see how much more engaged and confident the students have become in their learning.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments was watching a group of students work together with the new manipulatives to solve math problems—they were talking, laughing, and helping one another in ways that showed real collaboration and joy in learning. These resources have truly brought our lessons to life and allowed for more hands-on, meaningful experiences.\r\n\r\nWe're continuing to build on this momentum as we move into our next unit, where students will be applying these tools to explore new concepts and strengthen their skills even further. Your generosity has created a lasting impact that will continue to support their growth and curiosity throughout the year.

Your generosity has brought new energy and excitement to our classroom. Pete the Cat has become a wonderful social-emotional support for students, helping them stay calm and engaged during lessons and transitions. The new crayons support students' fine motor development as they draw, color, and write with growing control and confidence. The boxes and kinetic sand give many students the chance to engage in play, explore textures, and express their ideas creatively. The choo choo train and farm animals make learning more interactive and help students connect play with problem-solving and imagination.\r\n\r\nThese materials give students a variety of choices throughout the day, whether they're creating art, building, or practicing early math skills. They've helped the classroom feel more organized, calm, and welcoming. It's been great to see how students naturally take ownership of their learning and materials. Thank you for helping us create a space where learning is meaningful, playful, and full of joy.","fullyFundedDate":1760238258975,"projectUrl":"project/building-math-reading-and-creativity-t/9785465/","projectTitle":"Building Math, Reading, and Creativity Through Play","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Alan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10230839_orig.jpg?crop=1139,1139,x1340,y1219&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759013559942","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10230839"},{"teacherId":2632328,"projectId":9779347,"letterContent":"My students were finally able to color their pictures with ease because of the jumbo crayons that your donations helped me purchase. It was a hard at the beginning of the school year watching some of students struggle with grasping a tiny crayon. With the jumbo crayons, they were able to draw vibrant pictures and show off their creativity. Your generosity also allowed me to give the existing crayons in my room a little facelift because I was able to get a crayon sharpener!\r\n\r\nIn addition, I was able to buy some very colorful autumn leaf cut outs to teach my kindergarteners about the change in season. They can practice the science skill of sorting leaves by different properties. Students loved picking them up and really examining some of the details on the leaves.\r\n\r\nI'm so grateful because you were thinking of the needs of my students.","fullyFundedDate":1760533297925,"projectUrl":"project/jumbo-crayons-for-little-hands/9779347/","projectTitle":"Jumbo Crayons for Little Hands","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. M.

Setting everything up in a classroom that serves multiple classes in September is one of the hardest things to do. With your help, I was able to gather materials needed quickly and help my students get right into learning science.\r\n\r\nThe sticker sheets that were ordered were great because my younger students are still getting used to writing full sentences. Being able to print labels and focus questions and quickly sticking them on their notebooks allowed students more time to work on their observations instead of copying questions. The water filters kept my students hydrated and they were so pleasantly surprised when I told them that some very kind people donated money so that I can get these filters to provide them with clean and cold water to drink during class. And last but definitely not the least, the chair leg covers are saving our ears. Years ago I've covered my chair legs with tennis balls to reduce the scratching sound when students push their chairs in. But over the years of wear and tear, they started to fall off or just look unpleasant. One by one I've been replacing the tennis balls with the new covers that were purchased. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for helping me start the year nicely. I really appreciate your generosity and I know my students are learning that there are people out there who really care about them and their learning environment.","fullyFundedDate":1755738841177,"projectUrl":"project/getting-ready-for-science/9594946/","projectTitle":"Getting Ready for Science!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. M.

The classroom feels more inviting and organized. \r\n\r\nThese resources have made our classroom more engaging and organized, helping students stay focused while having fun. We'll continue using them during literacy and sensory centers to support both learning and fine motor development.

I set out the supplies- beads, iron, and bead boards in advance of the activity. Just seeing the supplies helped them to stay motivated and engaged in learning as summer was just around the corner!\r\n\r\nFrom beginning to end, the beading project was so fun for the kids. The older students had opportunities to design their own pictures at home. One student even did an intricate Pokemon. For the little kids, they had fun filling in the small peg boards that were heart-shaped or circles, filling them in with different patterns and color combinations. Filling the boards took several periods as the beads were very small. However, this was a great exercise in perseverance and fine motor skills!\r\n\r\nAfter filling the bead boards, I helped the students iron everything together and attached the keychains.

The area where all the math materials and tools were originally stored was a huge clutter— it was difficult for me to find what I needed for a lesson or activity which caused me to spend precious time shuffling through all the supplies. I am personally proud of the renewed organized math space. Because of the see-through storage containers, I was able to maximize the space to include a mini-library for students to browse books and bring books home to read.
