While many people use technology at home, in our classroom it is a critical tool for personalized learning. With the addition of headphones, students are now able to fully engage with digital lessons, videos, and interactive activities without distractions. This has been especially important for language learners and students who benefit from hearing content multiple times at their own pace.\r\n\r\nThe most exciting part for students has been the ability to \"own\" their learning experience. When they put on their headphones, they are able to focus, block out noise, and truly immerse themselves in what they are learning. Whether they are listening to historical narratives, participating in online simulations, or using text-to-speech supports, the headphones have made learning feel more independent and engaging.\r\n\r\nSome of our students who struggle with focus or are easily overwhelmed by noise have especially benefited from this technology. I've seen students who typically have difficulty staying on task become more confident and productive when using headphones. Additionally, our English Language Learners have been able to replay instructions and content as needed, giving them greater access and understanding.\r\n\r\nThis project has helped ensure that all students—not just some—can fully participate in technology-based learning. Moving forward, we will continue using these headphones daily as we prepare for assessments, complete research projects, and build critical skills for the future.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping make learning clearer, more focused, and more equitable for our students.","fullyFundedDate":1775753169174,"projectUrl":"project/sound-matters-headphones-for-student-su/10146363/","projectTitle":"Sound Matters: Headphones for Student Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Stalf","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8437751_orig.png?crop=1290,1290,x0,y30&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1783528368828","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8437751"},{"teacherId":8437751,"projectId":9956213,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, our classroom received a much-needed mid-year refresh, and it has made an immediate impact on our students' learning environment and engagement.\r\n\r\nWe've been using these new supplies every day to reset expectations and routines for the second half of the year.

Many of my students benefit from having tools that allow them to regulate their energy and attention while still staying engaged in their work. During independent work time and small group activities, students are able to quietly use items like fidget tools or sensory supports at their desks while completing assignments in their interactive binders or working on class projects. One memorable moment occurred during a writing activity when a student who often struggles to stay focused was able to use a sensory item and remain engaged long enough to complete their entire response. It was exciting to see them feel proud of finishing their work independently.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new materials, they were incredibly excited and curious. We took time to talk about how the sensory tools are meant to help support focus and learning, and the students quickly understood how they could use them responsibly. Many of them were eager to try different items and find what works best for them. It was wonderful to see students who sometimes feel overwhelmed become calmer and more ready to participate in class activities.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, these sensory supports will continue to play an important role as we work on upcoming lessons and projects. As we move into new units that require reading, writing, and collaborative discussions, students will be able to use these tools to help manage their focus and emotions. The next step for our class is continuing to build routines where students independently choose the sensory strategies that help them stay engaged during longer tasks, projects, and group work.

Track and Field has been one of my favorite sports since high school. It taught me a lot, not just about my teammates and myself, but rather how to push myself, to motivate others, and to work individually harder to strengthen the team.\r\n\tThe purpose of this project was to obtain tools that would invite students to try something new. This year, many school districts were put in a tough space when President Trump wanted to restrict DEI. Our district superintendent made the decision not to sign that document, which meant that part of the budget would be diminished; cuts were made across the board, and that meant even for athletics.\r\n\tThis year, I stepped out of my comfort zone to coach. In the winter, I assisted both boys' and girls' junior high school basketball. This was very demanding; 4 days a week practices and several games each week from November through February. Then I decided to have a go with Track and Field in the spring. I knew going in that I would like to be able to give as many students a way to express themselves. When asking students around the building what they thought track and field was, many would roll their eyes and say something about running...which honestly really made me grind my teeth. I asked many to come out and try the sport because it wasn't all running laps around the building, or sprints in the gym; there are opportunities to jump over hurdles and bars and into sandpits, and even throw shotputs, discuses, and even a javelin (foam of course). All of these events test your physical strength and agility, but also your mental strength; how one motivates themselves and continues to push through, even at the toughest time.\r\n\tI had a few students show up and try for the first couple weeks of the season; unfortunately, due to lack of registration our season ended rather abruptly. But on the positive side those students did try out the new items - shotput, discus, javelin, and starting blocks; and they loved getting to learn how to use them. And for these materials, I am again, very grateful. \r\n\tThese few students hopefully learned a new skill physically, but also ventured out of their own comfort zones to attempt a new activity on their own, for which you made possible. I hope to encourage more students to try track and field again in the future, because I know what an impact it had on me growing up. I learned so many things, made new friends, and became passionate about it enough to continue it in college, and even now on to coaching it. \r\n\tThank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me the opportunity to promote this recreational activity for students and to help them grow academically, physically, and mentally.","fullyFundedDate":1746452336451,"projectUrl":"project/sps-track-field-needs/9221781/","projectTitle":"SPS Track & Field Needs","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morgan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9918282_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1743547288366","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9918282"},{"teacherId":8437751,"projectId":9808003,"letterContent":"WritingThe new organizational materials have made a huge difference in helping my 7th–9th grade students take more ownership of their learning. 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.
