The new materials have truly elevated our classroom and brought so much joy to my students. They are absolutely loving the new supplies and have been eager to learn new card games. I recently taught them how to play Garbage, and it's been incredible to see how quickly they've picked it up! These games are helping them develop strategic thinking, math skills, sportsmanship, and patience...all while having fun together.\r\n\r\nThe watercolor sets have also been a huge hit. I love being able to hand a brand-new watercolor set to a student in need and watch their creativity bloom. During our art afternoons, students now have the chance to explore open-ended projects and work collaboratively. It's a time that sparks creativity, builds friendships, and fills our room with excitement.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has made a meaningful difference, not only in the materials we use, but also in the confidence, collaboration, and joy I see in my students each day. I'm deeply grateful for your support and excited to continue growing as a teacher, helping my students discover new ways to learn, play, and express themselves.","fullyFundedDate":1757541957943,"projectUrl":"project/lets-play-with-cards-and-do-art/9534795/","projectTitle":"Let's Play with Cards and Do Art","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Langeliers","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2938004"},{"teacherId":2938004,"projectId":9534530,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generosity and support. Having a snack basket in our classroom has made a huge difference for my students. Now, instead of having to go to a special person or location to get a snack, every child can choose one from the class basket and add it to our snack bucket. This small change has helped all students feel equal and included.\r\n\r\nI've noticed more than ever that many of our students require snacks throughout the day, especially since some families are facing financial challenges and have limited funds for food without SNAP assistance. Your donation has helped ensure that no child goes hungry or feels singled out, and I honestly cannot thank you enough for that.\r\n\r\nYour kindness has brought comfort and dignity to our classroom in such a simple but meaningful way. Thank you for caring about our kids.","fullyFundedDate":1757541047390,"projectUrl":"project/snacks-needed/9534530/","projectTitle":"Snacks Needed","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Langeliers","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2938004"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_45974","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":417,"numTeachers":28,"percentFrplEligible":29,"percentAsian":9,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":56,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":15,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":86.0,"schoolId":45974,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mary Woodward Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mary Woodward Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oregon/tigard-tualatin-sch-dist-23j/mary-woodward-elementary-school/45974"}
