When my 4th and 5th grade scholars first saw their new supplies they were excited! Some students even specified to their peers how we were to taken care of the supplies so that they would last. Sooo adorable! Dry-erase markers were quickly put to use. Students confidently showed their work on their desks. No worries, they are dry erase surfaces. We used our creativity by utilizing some of our graph paper to help with arrays for practicing multiplication. These materials didn't just support learning—they elevated it.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, our classroom truly feels like a space where curiosity and problem-solving thrive. Next, we will build on this momentum as we dive deeper into multi-step problem solving and real-world applications, using graphs and models to support our thinking. With these resources, my students are not only strengthening their math skills—they are learning to think critically, communicate clearly, and dream big about their futures. Thank you for helping us multiply not just numbers, but possibilities.","fullyFundedDate":1758202961618,"projectUrl":"project/write-erase-graph-and-grow/9589389/","projectTitle":"Write, Erase, Graph and Grow!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Reams","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3991826_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1498359905713","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3991826"},{"teacherId":8509237,"projectId":9246556,"letterContent":"Thank you again for donating to my classroom! \r\n\r\nMy scholars are LOVING the different snack options each day.
