Because of your generosity, my students now have access to calculators that actually work, with buttons that aren't rubbed off from over use. My algebra students can graph multiple lines on their calculators and compare them because the lines are in full color!\r\n\r\nIt may seem like a small thing, but it has already made such a difference in our classroom. In Algebra 1 Honors, I want my students spending their time thinking, problem solving, making connections, and understanding WHY the math works.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, every student now has equitable access to the same tools and can focus on the math in front of them. These calculators are being used every. single. day in our classroom, and will be used to enrich our math class for years to come.\r\n\r\nMore than anything, I want you to know that your donation didn't just buy calculators. You gave my students one less barrier between them and being successful in math. The haves and the have nots can all learn on the same level. As their teacher, I am incredibly grateful for people who are willing to invest in my students and help me give them the classroom they deserve.\r\n\r\nThank you for choosing to support us.

It was heartwarming to see the returning students, who helped start the mural last year, celebrate the arrival of vibrant new colors and full paint containers. For my new students, the prospect of leaving a lasting mark on our school is incredibly exciting. They are eager to use these materials to add color and beauty to our learning environment, and for many of them, painting on an outdoor wall for the entire school to see is a brand-new, empowering experience. It means the world to me that you chose to invest in my students, helping them feel important and giving them a true sense of ownership in this project. We cannot wait to share the finished mural with you!","fullyFundedDate":1779900481567,"projectUrl":"project/art-patio-mural-wall/10306552/","projectTitle":"Art Patio Mural Wall","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Villa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10473482"},{"teacherId":10514722,"projectId":10296622,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting my classroom with microphone headphones! Headphones with microphones are expensive, but in today's technology-rich classroom, they have become an important learning tool rather than a luxury.\r\n\r\nThese headphones have opened up a whole new way for my students to participate in science. Instead of every response having to be written, students can now explain their thinking, share evidence, defend an answer, and talk through their scientific process. The microphones allow students to record verbal responses that they can hear and play back. This gives them the opportunity to listen to themselves, make corrections, and improve their responses. It also allows me, as their teacher, to listen to and assess their thinking later instead of trying to catch every response in real time.\r\n\r\nThe impact has been especially meaningful in my Newcomer class, where students are learning English while simultaneously learning science. This year, I have students from Vietnam, China, Mexico, El Salvador, and Honduras. For these students, hearing themselves speak English is an important part of learning. When they are practicing science vocabulary and basic English phrases, being able to record themselves, listen back, and try again gives them a safe way to practice without the pressure of having to speak perfectly in front of the entire class. Hearing their own voices helps them recognize pronunciation and phrasing that they might not notice otherwise.\r\n\r\nMy Honors students have benefited in a completely different way. They are now using the microphones to explain their scientific thinking, debate ideas, and support their answers with evidence. I have seen a much higher level of interest in sharing opinions and defending ideas verbally because students no longer feel that every science response has to become a written paragraph. The microphones have made scientific discussion more accessible, interactive, and engaging.\r\n\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students this opportunity. Your generosity has provided much more than a set of headphones. You have given my students a way to be heard, a way to practice, and another way to show what they know.","fullyFundedDate":1780597342906,"projectUrl":"project/micd-up-for-mastery-help-all-students/10296622/","projectTitle":"Mic’d Up for Mastery: Help All Students Confidently Speak Science","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rohner","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10514722"},{"teacherId":115936,"projectId":9267000,"letterContent":"I cannot begin to express how your generous donation has helped my 7th grade students.
