These resources have had a tremendous impact on my students' learning and classroom experience. The whiteboards and markers have transformed the way students participate in class. They are now able to solve problems, share answers, and collaborate more interactively. Having the chance to write, erase, and try again has made them more willing to take risks and stay engaged in the lesson. The binders have helped students take ownership of their learning materials. With a clear system to store and track their notes, assignments, and resources, they are better prepared for class and more confident in keeping up with their work. They are also able to access resources more readily, making for less hands raised and more productive struggle moments to push independent thinkers.\r\nThese supplies have created a more dynamic and organized space, which has boosted students' focus and enthusiasm.\r\n\r\nYour kindness and generosity are directly shaping their success, and I am truly grateful for your support.","fullyFundedDate":1754868693095,"projectUrl":"project/thriving-in-2025/9442559/","projectTitle":"Thriving in 2025","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Tiggle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10068813"},{"teacherId":9607457,"projectId":9445458,"letterContent":"Thank you for your help with making sure my students have time to regulate their emotions and then come back to class.
