My students were thrilled to hear about our project getting funded and have been enthralled exploring and playing in our vet center.\r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, our students are being exposed to career opportunities as early as PreK. The hands-on play has provided enrichment, authentic learning, and a joy for our students. They especially love getting to care for their stuffed animals by giving them x-rays, grooming them, and keeping them safe in their cages.\r\n\r\nWe are looking forward to diving deeper into our learning and expanding our experiences by inviting a real veterinarian into our classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1757448675439,"projectUrl":"project/healing-paws-and-imaginations-a-playful/9585675/","projectTitle":"Healing Paws and Imaginations: A Playful Path to Vet Careers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ball","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4417986_orig.jpg?crop=827,827,x0,y118&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755012188572","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4417986"},{"teacherId":7876573,"projectId":9703649,"letterContent":"The cardboard chop saw has been a life saver for my students. At least that is what they say. They are able to start working on their projects much faster than when they were having to use scissors to cut the cardboard. Which isn't always an easy task and their hands really start to hurt. (mine too) \r\nWith your donation, which allowed us to get the saw, my students are so eager to get to work on their designs. They follow the engineer process by first coming up with an idea , then making a blueprint, getting their material list together and finally getting to build their design. So this resource has actually made it where we are getting our projects done in a much more timely fashion.\r\nThank you for your donation and believing in our class. You are investing in the future engineers, software designers, medical professionals and any other career their hearts desirer. We would again like to thank you for believing in us.","fullyFundedDate":1758139811175,"projectUrl":"project/cardboard-creativity/9703649/","projectTitle":"Cardboard Creativity","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sheppard","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7876573_orig.jpg?crop=1037,1037,x0,y772&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1623026206342","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7876573"},{"teacherId":8316011,"projectId":9443425,"letterContent":"This project has impacted my students by giving them a safe space to speak.

My students know exactly where to go to get the items they need for their project. \r\nThe storage has also given us more space in the classroom. Space is a huge plus when you are working in groups to collaborate on whatever it is they are working on. With this being a STEAM classroom, we have a lot of different types of supplies. The storage cabinet is just one way for them to not only be better organized, but to be able to store their unfinished project. Otherwise there would be a chance that their project could get messed up between classes. This has been a huge help.

My students absolutely love both of these items. The reading table has made teaching small groups so much easier. It is allowing me to work with the students and to see their way of thinking as they work. They really enjoy coming back to the reading table for their special table time to work with me and to show me what they know. The cassette player has made it possible for those students that may struggle a bit, to be able to concentrate without distracting noises around them. I have several learning tapes that otherwise, I would not be able to use. Through your generosity, you have made my job much easier.

Through your support, my students gained access to numerous interactive educational materials that have greatly improved their learning experience.\r\n\r\nThe most thrilling moment occurred during the introduction of our new learning resources. The students were extremely happy when they saw the hands-on materials. These tangible resources have enabled my students with special needs to access educational content in meaningful ways. Recently, we taught letter sounds and spelled their names using the lace ABC beads as our educational tool. The students showed joy in using the beads to construct their own names and expressed interest in creating additional words. Witnessing their eagerness to learn brought me great joy. Observing their excitement as they moved the beads to form words left me in awe.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your generosity. The remarkable growth I have seen in my students since receiving your donation has filled me with excitement as I watch them develop through practical learning tools.
