Simple but important tools—seat sacks, organization boxes and supplies for organization of hands-on activities—have allowed my students to fully participate without worry or hesitation. Everyone has what they need, and it shows in their confidence and excitement to learn.\r\nAs their teacher, these materials have allowed me to teach more effectively and creatively.\r\n With a well-stocked classroom, I can plan lessons that meet students' needs without spending time searching for supplies. We've been able to dive into interactive reading, writing, math, and STEM activities because we have the tools to do them well. These resources help create a smooth, supported learning environment where every student can succeed.\r\nThanks you so much","fullyFundedDate":1757560458255,"projectUrl":"project/learning-in-2nd-grade/9404476/","projectTitle":"Learning in 2nd grade","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Cheshire","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2507670_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752245339367","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-cheshire"},{"teacherId":2507670,"projectId":9403560,"letterContent":"Our STEM resources have already made such a difference in our classroom!\r\n My students have been using the new materials to explore hands-on challenges during our weekly STEM rotations.
