I am now able to create colorful literacy resources, visual supports, family newsletters, student portfolios, and interactive materials that meet each child's individual needs. My students are visual learners, and having access to high-quality printed materials helps strengthen print knowledge, vocabulary development, and engagement during lessons. It also allows me to document their growth in a meaningful and beautiful way to share with families.\r\n\r\nFrom the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in my students and investing in their learning. Your support goes far beyond a printer. It creates opportunities, confidence, and joy in our classroom community.

It is how learning comes to life. Since receiving these supplies, I have been able to create vibrant alphabet charts, individualized name tracing pages, math matching activities, science observation sheets, and visual supports that help my three year olds navigate their day with confidence.\r\n\r\nAt this age, children are just beginning to understand that print has meaning. Having consistent access to printing supplies allows me to provide clear visual schedules, labeled classroom materials, and hands on learning tools that support early literacy, independence, and routine building.\r\n\r\nYour donation has also strengthened our home school connection. Families now receive printed newsletters, learning extensions, and communication tools that help continue the learning beyond our classroom walls.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, these supplies allow me to respond to my students in real time. If they show interest in buildings, wheels, trees, or letters in their names, I can immediately create materials that extend their curiosity. That flexibility makes our classroom more engaging, inclusive, and responsive to every child.\r\n\r\nWhat may seem like simple supplies have created meaningful learning opportunities for three year olds who are just beginning their educational journey. You have helped build a stronger foundation for their future.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our classroom and investing in our youngest learners.","fullyFundedDate":1762266245675,"projectUrl":"project/printing-supplies-for-all-our-classroom/9841308/","projectTitle":"Printing Supplies for All Our Classroom Needs!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Merced","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10057975_orig.jpg?crop=3520,3520,x333,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1750430213872","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10057975"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_660","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":253,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":3,"percentBlack":52,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":40,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"6.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":53.3,"schoolId":660,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about PS 202 Ernest Jenkyns on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"PS 202 Ernest Jenkyns","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/ps-202-ernest-jenkyns/660"}
