We use the resources—such as supply bins, folders, and labeling tools—every day to keep student work, notebooks, and learning materials neatly arranged and easy to find. This has reduced time wasted looking for supplies and has created smoother transitions between lessons.One memorable moment came when students used their new organizational tools during our DBQ writing project. They were able to quickly access their documents, outlines, and notes without confusion. Several students proudly showed off how their binders were set up, saying things like, \"I finally know where everything goes!\" That sense of pride and independence has carried over into their classwork and behavior.When students first saw the materials, they were genuinely excited. They immediately started brainstorming ways to personalize their folders and storage areas, and many commented on how much easier it was to keep track of assignments.Right now, students are applying these organizational skills as we work through our American Revolution and Valley Forge DBQs. The next step is for students to maintain these systems as they take on longer writing assignments and group projects. Thanks to your support, they're not only learning history—they're learning how to stay prepared, responsible, and confident learners.TextDo you like this personality?","fullyFundedDate":1760707474840,"projectUrl":"project/essential-supplies-for-student-organizat/9808003/","projectTitle":"Essential Supplies for Student Organization","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Stalf","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8437751_orig.png?crop=1305,1305,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747103592192","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8437751"},{"teacherId":8437751,"projectId":9671228,"letterContent":"Our new classroom lighting has completely transformed the learning environment for my students. Before, the room often felt dim and distracting, but now the space feels bright, calm, and focused. We use the new lighting daily during reading groups, writing workshops, and social studies discussions—it's made a noticeable difference in how engaged and comfortable students feel.\r\n\r\nOne special moment came during our writing activity. A student commented, \"It feels like a real author's workshop in here now!\" The soft, adjustable lighting helps students stay focused without feeling overwhelmed, especially for those with sensory needs or who are learning English.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new lights, their faces lit up just as brightly! They were amazed at how much more inviting the classroom looked. Many of them said it felt \"like a whole new classroom\" and immediately asked to read or write by the new lighting.\r\n\r\nRight now, we're using our improved space to work on DBQ essays about Valley Forge. The better lighting helps students see their materials more clearly, collaborate more effectively, and stay on task longer. Next, we'll use the same cozy, focused environment to support small-group projects and independent research as we continue developing critical reading and writing skills.\r\n\r\nThanks to this project, our classroom is not just brighter—it's a place where students feel proud to learn every day.","fullyFundedDate":1758222758670,"projectUrl":"project/bright-ideas-adjustable-lighting-for-be/9671228/","projectTitle":"Bright Ideas: Adjustable Lighting for Better Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Stalf","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8437751_orig.png?crop=1305,1305,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1747103592192","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8437751"},{"teacherId":8437751,"projectId":9479356,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our project, Supporting Student Confidence with Hygiene Essentials! Because of your generosity, my students now have access to the basic hygiene items they need to feel comfortable, confident, and ready to learn each day.\r\n\r\nWhen the supplies first arrived, the reaction was powerful. Students were surprised—and relieved—to know that these items were available for them without embarrassment or judgment. For some, having deodorant, feminine products, or toothbrush kits at school meant one less worry in their daily lives. One student quietly shared, \"Now I don't have to miss class because I'm worried about not having what I need.\" Moments like these remind us how much small acts of kindness can change a student's school experience.\r\n\r\nThese essentials are already making a difference. Students are more at ease in the classroom, participating more fully, and showing up with greater confidence. Looking ahead, I plan to continue tying this support to lessons on health, self-care, and responsibility, helping students see the connection between taking care of themselves and their success in school.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has given my students not just supplies, but dignity and confidence.

Because of your generosity, my students now have the tools they need to dive deeper into history in meaningful and creative ways.\r\n\r\nWhen the notebooks and supplies first arrived, the excitement was immediate—students couldn't wait to personalize their notebooks and begin building a resource that is truly their own. One 8th grader said, \"This makes social studies feel more fun—it's like my own textbook, but better!\" That sense of ownership has led to more focus and participation in class.\r\n\r\nAlready, we've used the notebooks to map out ancient civilizations and to practice writing GRACES responses. Students are cutting, pasting, highlighting, and organizing information in ways that make history stick. These interactive notebooks are helping students connect concepts, reflect on what they've learned, and stay engaged throughout lessons.\r\n\r\nNext, we'll be using the notebooks for our DBQ projects, where students will gather evidence, take notes, and craft arguments like historians. Having these notebooks in place gives them a consistent, creative space to show their thinking and track their growth across the year.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has not only provided supplies, but also created an engaging learning environment where my students feel empowered as learners.

With the new resources from From Good Choices to Great Rewards: Supporting Student Behavior, my 7th–9th graders now have positive incentives that encourage them to make good choices every day. From day one, students were excited to see the new reward materials, and their faces lit up when they realized their positive actions would be recognized in such a meaningful way.\r\n\r\nOne moment that stood out was when a group of students who had been struggling with behavior took ownership of their choices in order to earn a reward. They were so proud to celebrate their progress, and it sparked conversations among peers about teamwork, responsibility, and respect. These small victories are building momentum for a stronger, more positive school culture.\r\n\r\nRight now, our class is working on connecting these rewards with our social-emotional learning lessons.
