The students have actually been able to complete the puzzles that they have started this year and we've been able to quickly store them away intact when it is time for an event or a meeting in the library space. The students L-O-V-E the puzzle boards! This has been great for student morale! They like to see their finished products. We are putting the completed puzzles on display to share with everyone.\r\n\r\n The clorox wipes and pencils are really essential items that we need daily to make sure that we get a clean start and all students have what they need to complete writing tasks. My students are from low-income families and it was super awesome to unburden them financially by supplying the basics for them this school year and not requesting these items as part of their school supply list.\r\n\r\n My students and I are so appreciative of your kindness and support!","fullyFundedDate":1755687381753,"projectUrl":"project/beginning-of-the-year-essentials/9535791/","projectTitle":"Beginning of the Year Essentials","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sizemore","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3930088_orig.jpg?crop=1514,1514,x0,y100&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1616087781021","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3930088"},{"teacherId":1518902,"projectId":9188278,"letterContent":"When my students first saw the new markers, Sharpies, pencils, and erasers, their excitement was immediate. They were so eager to open the boxes, test the colors, and use the supplies in their sketchbooks. Several students remarked how much easier it was to work with quality materials, and it gave them a sense of pride to know they had the tools real artists use.\r\n\r\nWe are already using these supplies in our drawing unit, where students are learning how to build strong foundations in sketching, shading, and adding vibrant details. The pencils and erasers have been perfect for practicing skills like proportion and perspective, while the Sharpies and markers allow students to bring their drawings to life with bold outlines and rich color. These resources have removed the stress of not having what they need, letting them focus on creating with confidence.\r\n\r\nThe next step for my students is to take these skills into their upcoming projects, where they'll be exploring more advanced techniques and experimenting with new styles. Your generosity has truly made a difference in their ability to grow as artists, and I am so grateful for the opportunity you've given them to create, learn, and shine.","fullyFundedDate":1752514143047,"projectUrl":"project/color-create-inspire-essential-suppli/9188278/","projectTitle":"Color, Create, Inspire: Essential Supplies for Young Artists!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rezapour","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1518902_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1533493262602","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/p-shanks"},{"teacherId":3930088,"projectId":9194918,"letterContent":"You've had a huge impact on the success of my students.
