The new materials have allowed my Kindergarten through 6th-grade artists to experiment with media that many of them had never experienced before. We recently used the supplies in a mixed-media \"Dream Wings\" project, where students designed large-scale wings that visually represented their goals, interests, and personal strengths. The variety of textures, colors, and adaptive tools ensured that every learner—including my neurologically diverse students—could engage meaningfully and express themselves with confidence.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the excitement was immediate and heartfelt. Students gathered around as we unpacked everything, their eyes wide with curiosity. Several students who are typically hesitant to try new activities were the first to ask, \"When can we use this?\" One of my younger artists, who often struggles with fine motor tasks, proudly completed intricate layered details using the new tools and told me, \"This feels like real artist stuff.\" Moments like that remind me that access matters—not just for creativity, but for self-belief.","fullyFundedDate":1765389299155,"projectUrl":"project/let-our-dreams-soar-inspiring-young-ar/9799247/","projectTitle":"Let Our Dreams Soar — Inspiring Young Artists Through Imagination","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tinjum","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6892109_orig.jpg?crop=3133,3133,x104,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1696278896080","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6892109"},{"teacherId":7605100,"projectId":9690229,"letterContent":"Our library is STEM-tastic thanks to you! Hands-on learning experiences are sparking curiosity in our students. They are able to examine objects up close, especially the insects, with the magnifying glasses. Students have identified parts of the insects and counted all six legs. \r\nSafety first is a must when working with students and the safety glasses allowed students safely to create a chemical reaction and watch as the \"lava lamp\" bubbled.\r\nMake and take is enjoyable for everyone, however our students were super excited to learn that they will be able to keep the project they create.

Your support has made a meaningful and immediate difference in the learning experiences of my students.\r\n\r\nNearpod has transformed the way my 5th graders engage with lessons, especially those who are several grade levels behind or receive special education and dyslexia services. With interactive lessons, real-time checks for understanding, and accessible learning tools, Nearpod allows every student to participate at their level and feel successful. The platform lets me embed visuals, models, read-alouds, and guided practice into every lesson, which helps my students build confidence while strengthening their reading fluency and comprehension.\r\n\r\nFor my small-group instruction and intervention time, Nearpod has been especially powerful. I am able to monitor progress instantly, give immediate feedback, and tailor instruction based on what students need in that moment. Students who often struggle to stay engaged are now more motivated because the lessons feel interactive and personalized. This has led to noticeable improvement in their participation, accuracy, and overall understanding.\r\n\r\nYour donation has not only provided a digital tool—it has opened the door for my students to access learning in ways that meet their needs, honor their strengths, and support their growth.

Their eyes lit up, and one student exclaimed, \"We get to build like real artists and engineers!\" That sense of confidence and curiosity has filled our classroom ever since.\r\n\r\nWe've been using the ChompSaw to explore design thinking and sculpture. Students have planned and built small wooden reliefs inspired by nature and architecture, learning how to measure, cut, and assemble pieces with care and teamwork. It's been amazing to see how this tool bridges art and STEM — helping students understand how creativity and precision go hand in hand.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to create a collaborative installation for our hallway, featuring student-designed wooden shapes painted and arranged into a large \"Creativity Garden.\" This project will not only showcase their craftsmanship but also celebrate how tools like the ChompSaw empower young makers to dream big and build boldly.","fullyFundedDate":1757507358462,"projectUrl":"project/cutting-into-creativity-a-chompsaw-for/9672957/","projectTitle":"Cutting Into Creativity: A ChompSaw for Young Makers","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tinjum","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6892109_orig.jpg?crop=3133,3133,x104,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1696278896080","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6892109"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_11866","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":643,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":72,"percentAsian":12,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":25,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":23,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":4,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"17.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":71.3,"schoolId":11866,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about South Euless Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"South Euless Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/hurst-euless-bedford-independent-school-district/south-euless-elementary-school/11866"}
