We recently received all of the cleaning supplies, and they've already made a huge difference in our classroom routine. Everything is being used daily to help keep our learning space clean, safe, and comfortable. My students have really taken ownership of tidying up after themselves—they even get excited about \"clean-up time\" now!\r\n\r\n It's been great seeing the students take pride in helping wipe down desks and organize materials. The added structure and cleanliness have made it easier for us to focus on our learning goals without distractions. As we continue with our daily routines and group activities, these materials are helping us build healthy habits and a sense of responsibility in the classroom.\r\n\r\nThanks again for helping make our classroom feel cared for and supported. We appreciate you more than you know!","fullyFundedDate":1742582578791,"projectUrl":"project/sparkling-success-a-clean-classroom-for/9089880/","projectTitle":"Sparkling Success: A Clean Classroom for Bright Minds!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Vanderpool","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9815477"},{"teacherId":9697591,"projectId":8689204,"letterContent":"First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for your incredible generosity and support of my classroom. The contributions you have made have had an immediate and lasting impact on my students and their learning environment. Your kindness has truly made a difference, and I'd like to share how your donations have been used and the joy they have brought to my students.\r\n\r\nFrom the moment the materials arrived, my students were thrilled. Seeing the lamps and additional stools sparked excitement in their eyes. The lamps have created a calm, welcoming atmosphere in our classroom, allowing us to rely less on harsh overhead lights. The flexible seating options, including the stools, have provided students with the ability to choose a setup that suits their learning style, whether working at their desks or in small groups. These changes have made our classroom feel more comfortable and engaging.\r\n\r\nDuring small group activities, the CVC and CVCC/CCVC fidget pop games have been a hit! My students love using these tools to sound out words and write them. It's been amazing to see their faces light up when they confidently sound out a word independently. My Instructional Assistant and I have noticed significant improvements in their learning progress and confidence levels. These resources have turned foundational literacy activities into moments of joy and discovery.\r\n\r\nThe headphones you provided have also been a game-changer. Some of my students didn't have access to their own or had broken pairs, so the headphones from the Starter Kit have been invaluable. They allow all my students to fully engage with digital learning activities without barriers.\r\n\r\nThe clipboards have added an element of flexibility to our lessons. Students love using them to write words or count objects while moving around the room. They've also been great for sitting on the carpet during group work, giving us more options for collaborative learning beyond the desks. Additionally, the laminating sheets have been incredibly useful. I've been able to preserve printed materials for walking-around-the-room activities, ensuring we can reuse them in the future.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has not only provided my students with essential tools but has also fostered a more dynamic and supportive learning environment. It's evident in their smiles, enthusiasm, and growing confidence. Your contributions have made a tangible difference in their educational journey, and for that, I am forever grateful.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your kindness and support. You have made our classroom a brighter, more inspiring place for learning, and we will continue to cherish and utilize the resources you have provided.","fullyFundedDate":1727988119983,"projectUrl":"project/kindergarten-starter-kit/8689204/","projectTitle":"Kindergarten Starter Kit","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Crowe","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9697591_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1724292704543","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrspaytoncrowe"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1357","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":575,"numTeachers":50,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":60,"percentWhite":5,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"11.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_MIDSIZE"},"inStateSupporters":53.2,"schoolId":1357,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cliffdale Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cliffdale Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/cumberland-county-schools/cliffdale-elementary-school/1357"}
