We use the workbooks for independent practice, small-group instruction, review, and extra support when students need more time with a concept. They also help students build confidence by allowing them to see their progress and celebrate their successes.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new materials, they were excited to have something that was specifically theirs to use. They were eager to look through the workbooks and begin working on the activities. Having high-quality materials that students can write in and use regularly has helped make math practice feel more meaningful and engaging.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to continue using the IXL workbooks alongside our current math lessons. Students will apply the skills they are learning in class, practice independently, and use the materials to review skills they have previously learned. My goal is for students to become more confident, independent mathematicians who are willing to keep trying even when a problem is challenging.\r\n\r\nThank you to our donors for helping provide these resources and giving my students another way to practice, grow, and experience success in mathematics.","fullyFundedDate":1776440572923,"projectUrl":"project/build-foundational-skills/10099989/","projectTitle":"Build Foundational Skills","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Swanson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10177610_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755455215253","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10177610"},{"teacherId":3993606,"projectId":10381391,"letterContent":"Because of your generosity, our seventh-grade students have had access to snacks throughout the school year, and the impact has been greater than we could have imagined. Many of our students come to school carrying challenges that extend far beyond the classroom. Having a variety of individually packaged snacks available has allowed us to meet an immediate need so students can refocus on learning. Whether a student forgot breakfast, has a long afternoon ahead, or simply needs a quick boost of energy, these snacks have helped keep them engaged in class and ready to participate.\r\n\r\nWhen the snacks first arrived, our students were genuinely excited and incredibly appreciative. Something as simple as being offered a snack communicates that someone cares about them. We've seen students express gratitude, share kind words, and even encourage classmates to take a snack if they needed one. These small moments have helped foster a positive and supportive classroom environment where students feel valued and cared for.\r\n\r\nAs the school year continues, these snacks will remain an important part of supporting our students' success. They will be available during classroom instruction, small-group interventions, tutoring sessions, testing days, and other times when students need an extra boost to stay focused. Your generosity has done more than provide food—it has helped remove a barrier to learning and reminded our students that people they have never met believe in them and are invested in their success. Thank you for making such a meaningful difference in the lives of our seventh grade scholars.","fullyFundedDate":1785260837094,"projectUrl":"project/brain-fuel-for-bright-futures/10381391/","projectTitle":"Brain Fuel for Bright Futures","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Peña","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3993606_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1504714323456","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3993606"},{"teacherId":9623109,"projectId":10041006,"letterContent":"Thank you for making these professional books part of my classroom!

Many students come to school carrying challenges that can make it difficult to focus throughout the day, and having access to snacks has helped create a more supportive and positive classroom environment. We use the snacks during independent work time, testing days, small group instruction, and after-school activities. One moment that stood out was during a long testing day, when students began to lose focus and energy. After taking a quick snack break, I noticed students becoming more engaged, motivated, and ready to continue learning. It was a reminder that meeting students' basic needs plays a major role in their success inside the classroom.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the snacks, they were incredibly excited and grateful. Many of them immediately smiled, said \"thank you,\" and expressed how much they appreciated having something available during the school day. For some students, it was more than just a snack; it was a reminder that people care about them and want to support their success. Seeing their reactions made this project even more meaningful and showed how powerful kindness and generosity can be.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, these snacks will continue helping students stay focused, energized, and ready to learn as we work through classroom lessons, collaborative projects, and intervention activities. My goal is to continue creating a classroom environment where students feel safe, supported, and encouraged to do their best every day.
