We love creating art or extending classroom lesson through art projects. And the students love taking it home and displaying it with pride. I get asked every time we are in the middle of an art project \"Do we get to take it home?\" Most times the answer is \"YES!\", but sometimes I do have to say, we are going to hang it up in the hallway to show others what we are learning about.\r\n\r\nThe construction paper you helped us buy is a good quality paper that can withstand the cutting and gluing that only 5 year olds in kindergarten seem to do as they complete art. We love the size of an 12x18\" piece of paper. It allows us to frame our art or just create really big pieces.\r\n\r\nAgain, thank you for your support to our classroom. The joy on my students faces is evident when they ask to bring it home or smile for photos. I couldn't have purchased this quality of paper without your help. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.","fullyFundedDate":1758831448117,"projectUrl":"project/snip-rip-and-tearart-with-paper/9609884/","projectTitle":"Snip, Rip, and Tear...Art With Paper","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Smith","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp4512434_orig.jpg?crop=2675,2675,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1691011682342","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4512434"},{"teacherId":4512434,"projectId":9747494,"letterContent":"Lego's, Lego's everywhere! Thank you so much for helping us create the ultimate lego storage solution for our collection of leftover FLL season pieces. To build our storage units and sort our collections of Lego pieces, we invited students and parents to come and help us. We had 6 fathers building the shelving, while some mothers helped label the bins. The students of course dug into the Lego's and sorted for as long as we could keep them busy. \r\n\r\nWhen the activity was finished, the shelving units fit right under the tables as measured and have been utilized by the students as we continue building on our robots and working on designing our special arms and attachments with those hard to find pieces. No more dumping the box on the floor and making more of mess. It is so much easier to find that one special piece we need when we begin building. We couldn't have done it without out your help.

Starting right away in September. Some of the them are just for fun decoration, while others celebrate some learning about an academic content. The photos are a sneak into our classroom through out the year, for projects we've done and projects to come that previous classes have done and we look forward too.\r\n\r\nAgain, thank you for your donation. I couldn't have provided these art supplies without your help. You have made this teacher very happy and 65 kindergartens ready to explore their artistic talents with tempra paint. Who knows?

The joy and wonder on their faces as they observe the tiny details of the world around them is truly priceless.

Your support has allowed us to bring engaging STEM toys into our students' hands, giving them opportunities they might not otherwise have.\r\n\r\nLiving in a remote area presents challenges, especially when it comes to accessing educational resources. These new STEM tools have opened doors for our students to explore science, technology, engineering, and math in ways that feel fun, exciting, and accessible. Through hands-on activities, our preschoolers are:\r\n\r\nBuilding problem-solving skills by experimenting, making mistakes, and trying again.\r\n\r\nPracticing teamwork as they collaborate and communicate to reach shared goals.\r\n\r\nDeveloping early coding skills by using interactive toys that turn complex concepts into playful challenges.\r\n\r\nStrengthening creativity and critical thinking through open-ended exploration and discovery.\r\n\r\nThe impact has been immediate. Our classroom is now buzzing with energy as students work together, ask questions, and explore how things move, connect, and respond. They are developing skills that go far beyond academics—gaining confidence, persistence, and a love of learning that will benefit them for years to come.\r\n\r\nYour contribution has made a lasting difference in the lives of our young learners. By helping us bring STEM to our classroom, you've sparked curiosity, built confidence, and created opportunities that would not have been possible without your support.","fullyFundedDate":1740928653538,"projectUrl":"project/coding-kiddos-helping-preschoolers-spar/8937407/","projectTitle":"Coding Kiddos: Helping Preschoolers Spark Their Interest in Steam!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. LaValle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6405006_orig.png?crop=1026,1026,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731627155594","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6405006"},{"teacherId":6405006,"projectId":8930228,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, our classroom has been transformed into a place filled with curiosity, exploration, and joyful learning! By providing multiple light panels for our students, you've opened the door to endless opportunities for hands-on discovery, and the impact has been remarkable.\r\n\r\nBefore, we had only one light table to share, which limited how often our students could participate. Now, with several light panels available, more children are engaged at the same time—collaborating, experimenting, and learning together. What's even more exciting is the range of skills we've been able to strengthen:\r\n\r\nLiteracy: Students are tracing and building letters, recognizing sight words, and exploring story-based activities in a fun, interactive way. The glowing letters make reading and writing feel like an adventure rather than a task.\r\n\r\nMath: Light panels have become an incredible tool for hands-on number exploration. From sorting and counting translucent manipulatives to comparing shapes and patterns, our students are strengthening their number sense while enjoying every moment.\r\n\r\nColors & Creativity: The panels encourage exploration of color blending, light, and shadows. Students are experimenting with how colors change, overlap, and interact in ways that spark awe and deeper understanding.\r\n\r\nPerhaps the most inspiring outcome has been seeing our students' excitement each time they approach the light panels. For many of them, access to special tools like these wouldn't be possible outside the classroom, given that more than 70% of our community faces high poverty. These panels don't just support academic growth—they create meaningful learning experiences that our students will carry with them.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping us make learning magical. Your support has truly ignited a passion for literacy, math, and creative exploration in our classroom. Because of you, our students are seeing the world in new and brilliant ways.","fullyFundedDate":1741312687369,"projectUrl":"project/light-steam-work/8930228/","projectTitle":"Light STEAM Work!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. LaValle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6405006_orig.png?crop=1026,1026,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731627155594","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6405006"},{"teacherId":4512434,"projectId":9108293,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating a 2nd robot kit to the schools robotics team.
