They all learn in their own unique way. Some come to school already having a lot of knowledge, while others need a lot of support. Is important to differentiate materials, activities and lessons when working with younger children.\r\n\r\nCreating differentiated lessons takes a great deal of planning and time; however, Teachers Pay Teachers has many unique ideas to meet the needs of individual learners in a diverse classroom.\r\n\r\nThanks for helping me acquire materials that helped my students achieve their own personal goals.

The planners have become part of our morning routine. Students write down goals, homework, and upcoming assessments, and many of them proudly decorate their pages to make the process their own. The calendars have helped us create a shared class schedule, allowing students to see important dates, unit deadlines, and classroom celebrations all in one place.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite moments was the first day the materials arrived. The students' eyes lit up when they realized each of them would have their own planner. Several students immediately flipped through the pages, pointing out features they were excited to use, while others asked if they could start filling in dates right away. For many, it was the first time they had a personal organizational tool not just for school, but for their everyday lives.\r\n\r\nA recent project that truly showcased the impact was our \"Monthly Goals Challenge.\" Students used their planners and the class calendar to set academic and personal goals for November. They tracked progress each week, and the cart made it easy to access everything quickly as they moved into small-group work. I saw students taking more ownership of their learning, helping each other plan, and celebrating small achievements along the way.\r\n\r\nNext, we're using the planners to support our upcoming unit on study skills and time management. Students will learn how to break larger assignments into smaller steps, set deadlines, and reflect on their progress. These resources will continue to support them throughout the year and build habits that go far beyond the classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you again for making such a meaningful difference. Your contribution didn't just provide supplies, it gave my students tools to stay motivated, accountable, and proud of their growth.","fullyFundedDate":1758899035602,"projectUrl":"project/managing-school/9703812/","projectTitle":"Managing School","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Gonzalez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-5_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6695009"},{"teacherId":6695009,"projectId":9718441,"letterContent":"The technology and materials provided—especially the speaker and the ink—have made a significant difference in my classroom. Many of our donors may not realize how essential these tools are for day-to-day learning. The speaker allows students to clearly hear instructional videos, read-alouds, and presentations, which keeps them engaged and helps them better understand the content. The ink has been equally important, allowing me to print graphic organizers, visual supports, differentiated assignments, and graduation preparation materials that many of my students rely on to succeed.\r\n\r\nWhat excites my students the most is the way the new speaker brings lessons to life. Audio is crisp and clear, making group discussions, music, and presentations far more interactive. Students are noticeably more focused, and they love being able to hear their classmates' work played back during project presentations. Having reliable ink has also empowered them to take pride in their printed work—whether it's a polished essay, a project cover page, or materials that help them review for important assessments.\r\n\r\nSeveral students who normally struggle to participate have really opened up because of this project. Clear audio has helped my English learners and students with attention difficulties follow along more easily, and the printed supports have given them the confidence to stay on track academically.
