Each group has different needs, so there is a different lesson plan with different materials for each group. The binders and dividers make it possible for me and my students to stay organized.\r\n\r\nThe students love having their own binder. They are proud of the work within their binder and know it is their own.\r\n\r\nWe also use the pens and highlighters on a regular basis.

In a room filled with curiosity, energetic five years olds, having the right tools creates structure, boosts, independence, and enhances learning in ways that words can barely capture.\r\n\r\nThe chair pockets have brought much needed organization and structure to our learning environment. My students now have their supplies within easy to reach, which helps them stay focused and take more responsibility for their materials. This small change has led to big improvements in their independence and time managements during lessons.\r\n\r\nHeadphones have become an essential tool in our daily literacy centers and technology time. Whether listening audiobooks, engaging in phonics games, or following along with educational videos, students are now able to focus without distraction. The headphone organizer keeps everything neat and easily accessible, teaching students how to care for shared classroom tools.\r\n\r\nThe voice recording buttons have been a game changer for developing early language and communication skills. Students use them to record and replay their voices and practice reading fluency. It has been especially impactful for our English language learners and student who benefit from auditory feedback.\r\n\r\nThe dry eraser pockets have made learning more interactive and ecofriendly. Whether practicing letter formation solving math problems or responding prompts, students are excited to use them daily. Allow for immediate feedback and repeat practice, without the need for constant copies.\r\n\r\nEvery single item you provided has helped create a more supportive and joyful learning space. These tools don't just support academics they help build confidence, independence and a love for learning.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of myself, my students, and entire school community: thank you for believing in our classroom. Your generosity has truly made a lasting difference in the lives of our youngest learners.","fullyFundedDate":1753042177859,"projectUrl":"project/new-supplies-new-activities/9460291/","projectTitle":"New Supplies, New Activities","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Jaramillo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10077880"},{"teacherId":6830297,"projectId":9047972,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support!

This charging station helps ensure that our iPads are always ready to go for interactive lessons, math practice, reading programs, research projects, and more without the stress of dead batteries or tangled cords!\r\nThe most exciting part for my students has been the independence it gives them. They love being able to plug in their devices on their own and know exactly where to find them when it's time to learn.

One of the most memorable moments was during a game focused on managing a budget students were debating whether to \"save\" or \"spend\" and explaining their choices with real reasoning.
