The small whiteboards are awesome; they are double-sided with lines on one side. The kids use the lined side to practice handwriting, math, and the other side to draw or do other activities, and we can never have too many dry-erase markers. Now that we have the whiteboard cleaner, it makes clean up a lot quicker as well. The boxes of tissue arrived just in time for cold and flu season as well. \r\nWe are still waiting for a couple more items that will come after the start of the new year, but I look forward to being able to put them to use as well.\r\n\r\nHappy Holidays!","fullyFundedDate":1764713614094,"projectUrl":"project/just-the-essentials-please/9923759/","projectTitle":"Just the Essentials Please","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mittelstadt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp303486_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1449682643720","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-mittelstadt"},{"teacherId":303486,"projectId":9838207,"letterContent":"Thank you so much to everyone who donated to my project, Incentives for Them All!

Yesterday, one of the boys was willing to do all of his math work so he could earn extra \"Weaver Bucks\". \r\nReceiving all the new incentives for this project has not only provided highly sought-after items the kids want, but has also helped take some of the financial burden off staff who spend their own money to keep the class \"store\" stocked. I am so thankful to DonorsChoose and everyone who supports educators; your donations help keep kids supported, engaged, and ready to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1763498224972,"projectUrl":"project/incentives-for-them-all/9838207/","projectTitle":"Incentives for Them All","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mittelstadt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp303486_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1449682643720","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-mittelstadt"},{"teacherId":7788604,"projectId":9521621,"letterContent":"I am writing with an update on how we used your donation to support reading at Beaumont. Things did not go as planned, but, I'd say, the results ended up better than expected! \r\n\r\nPhase 1: Order Issues!\r\nAmazon was not able to fulfill our order for \"Cuando era puertorriqueña,\" which meant I had to think of a plan B. I mentioned the issue to our instructional coach, who had an innovative idea in mind...\r\n\r\nPhase 2: Support other classrooms!\r\n...As it turns out, two of our new English language arts teachers were looking for support for their classroom novel project, which involved book sets for the 4-star novel \"City of Ember\" (Check out the CommonSense Media review.) With your funding, we were able to purchase 70+ copies of this text for two ELA teachers. \r\n\r\nPhase 3: Add to our classroom library \r\nThanks to your generous donations, there was more that we could do. We purchased a collection of new Spanish language books for our classroom library, none of which have stayed on my loaner table long! These novels support kids' independent reading time, which they complete at home 3 nights per week. \r\n\r\nPhase 4: Support creative writing\r\nLastly, your donation also supported the purchase of 30 composition notebooks for students, which are used 2x/week for vocabulary building and creative writing activities. So far, students have journaled about big life changes and what they would do if they were granted three wishes.\r\n\r\nAll in all, we've been able to make your donations go far, so thank you! And I am still committed to reading \"Cuando era Puertorriqueña\" with my students, but we will simply have to look for an additional source of funding. \r\n\r\nCon gratitud,","fullyFundedDate":1754643257379,"projectUrl":"project/50-copies-of-esmeralda-santiagos-engagi/9521621/","projectTitle":"50 Copies of Esmeralda Santiago's Engaging Memoir for Class Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Good","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7788604_orig.jpg?crop=2000,2000,x980,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1615562774650","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7788604"},{"teacherId":303486,"projectId":9581347,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for everyone's continued support of the projects that I post.

This helps to create a calmer atmosphere for students who tend to become dysregulated easily. \r\n The small Lego sets are great incentives that our students can \"purchase\" with their Weaver Bucks. The big Lego build set is so popular that we have to keep it in a closet so they will get work done.
