With your generous donation I have been able to supply hungry students daily. Students on our low income population school often go without meals. Being able to help supplement their daily needs has helped them focus in class more, regulate their emotions and try their best on their assignments. \r\n\r\nSome of the donations were candy form and we use that in our classroom reward system. This has taken away the burden of using my personal money as a teacher to reward student behavior, use in a raffle system and deal fairy treats. \r\n\r\nThank you again for your generous donations.","fullyFundedDate":1757560458909,"projectUrl":"project/snack-attack/9530150/","projectTitle":"Snack Attack","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp667028_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1656993708686","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/abell"},{"teacherId":8566746,"projectId":9044487,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our \"Words to Worlds: Empowering English Language Learners!\" project.

They have really enjoyed using the microphones and headphones to read to Amira (their AI Reading tutor. The microphones have helped them know right were to speak so they can read more clearly and get feedback. \r\nThis technology has really helped my students who are just on the cusp of reading independently. Having immediate feedback and reading in a fun technologic way has made it exciting for them. Additionally my students who don't speak English have been getting better at pronouncing English words more clearly.

Working with our new tools has truly brought coding to life, as we were able to take abstract computer commands and apply them to real-world robotics.

The chance to program and control you directly allowed us to see the immediate impact of our coding, making each step feel like a meaningful accomplishment.\r\n\r\nAdditionally, working in teams to identify problems and collaborate on solutions has been an invaluable part of the learning process. It was inspiring to see how different perspectives came together to tackle challenges and refine our strategies.

These math manipulatives have made such a positive impact on our classroom learning environment.

After using these tools during lessons, students' scores and overall engagement in math has boosted tremendously! I cannot wait to see what happens next year!\r\n\r\n When my students first saw the manipulatives, they were so excited! Many students lack confidence in trying out tricky math problems, especially around their peers. Having enough manipulatives for the entire class to use at their own pace has truly enriched each student's math experience. I most especially enjoy having these tools on hand for after school tutoring. I have watched students who have not been able to grasp certain concepts, make amazing progress this year!\r\n\r\n I am so grateful to see just how much this donation of materials has helped these students.
