The mice, headphones, and mousepads you provided have already made a tremendous difference in our daily learning. My students are thriving with these new tools — using the mice to navigate digital learning platforms with ease, engaging more deeply with interactive lessons, and staying focused during independent work thanks to the headphones. The mousepads, though small in size, have brought big improvements in comfort and accuracy, making computer-based tasks smoother and more enjoyable.\r\n\r\nWhat's most exciting for my students is how much more independent and confident they feel when using technology. They love being able to move through coding programs and learning games without frustration, and the headphones have opened up a whole new world of personalized learning — from audiobooks during literacy time to tutorial videos in small groups. One student, who used to struggle with staying focused during online lessons, now beams with pride when completing activities on her own. She told me, \"I feel like a real tech expert now!\" This project hasn't just given them tools — it's given them a sense of ownership and empowerment in their learning.\r\n\r\nYour donation has created a more focused, engaging, and accessible environment for my students.
