The new resources have already made a tremendous impact in our classroom. My students have been using the materials daily during small-group instruction and hands-on learning centers. One of the first projects we completed was a collaborative activity where students worked together using the new supplies to build models, complete reading tasks, and engage in interactive learning stations. Seeing them explore, problem-solve, and support one another with these materials has truly elevated their learning experience.\r\n\r\nThe excitement on their faces when they first saw the items is something I will never forget. Many of them immediately asked, \"Are these really for us?\" and jumped right in, eager to touch, read, and use everything. Your generosity made them feel valued, supported, and seen—something every child deserves.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, these resources will continue to play a key role in our ongoing lessons and upcoming projects. We are currently beginning a new unit where students will rotate through literacy, math, and enrichment centers using the tools you helped provide. Thanks to you, my students now have what they need to learn more effectively, stay engaged, and develop stronger academic skills. Your donation has created opportunities that will benefit them throughout the entire school year, and we are truly grateful.\r\n\r\nThank you again for believing in our classroom and helping our students shine.","fullyFundedDate":1736786278605,"projectUrl":"project/supporting-homeless-students-providing/8856021/","projectTitle":"Supporting Homeless Students: Providing","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Stanton","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9791354_orig.png?crop=184,184,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1727976183165","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9791354"},{"teacherId":10003698,"projectId":9446794,"letterContent":"I cannot express how grateful my students and I are for these supplies!
