Having access to snacks has helped students stay focused and energized, especially during long instructional periods. When basic needs are met, students are better able to engage in learning, participate in discussions, and regulate their emotions. The availability of snacks has also fostered a sense of care and support, helping students feel safe and valued in the learning environment.\r\n\r\nArt supplies have encouraged creativity, self-expression, and confidence among students. With the proper materials, students are more willing to take creative risks and communicate their ideas in ways that go beyond words. Art activities have supported social-emotional learning by giving students an outlet to express feelings and collaborate with peers. Additionally, cleaning wipes have promoted a cleaner, healthier classroom. Students take pride in maintaining their space, which builds responsibility and respect for shared materials. Together, these resources have created a more supportive, engaging, and positive learning environment where students can thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1758511305556,"projectUrl":"project/unlocking-musical-potential-with-a-yamah/9734664/","projectTitle":"Unlocking Musical Potential With a Yamaha Keyboard","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sipary","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10259266"},{"teacherId":9193266,"projectId":9719952,"letterContent":"The impact on students having essential supplies at the tip of their fingers is knowing their imagination is limitless. Since our essential classroom supplies have arrived, it has helped our students feel confident in their ability to function in the classroom. They are not depending on others for a pencil, have achieve completed assignments and tasks. The essentials supplies has given them items such as folders and pencils, glue sticks, construction papers to create hands on activities that help their everyday learning.\r\n\r\nAnother way our school supplies has affect our student learning is by helping our students engage with their assignments. Rather than hearing their teacher talk through multiplication operations, they could follow along with a pen and paper by writing out equations themselves. This has allows for hands-on experience with skills and an overall better learning process; they have realized that they learn better by writing things out themselves.","fullyFundedDate":1758397202547,"projectUrl":"project/essential-classroom-supplies/9719952/","projectTitle":"Essential Classroom Supplies","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Saskuar","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9193266_orig.jpg?crop=858,858,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1692141424871","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9193266"},{"teacherId":10265204,"projectId":9775719,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting Lively Lessons with Lasting Impact. Your generosity has truly transformed the atmosphere in our classroom. Since receiving the materials, my students have been using the markers daily for group work, visual thinking activities, and interactive lessons. But the biggest change has come from the microphone and speaker system. Today, we held a classroom debate, and the speaker brought a whole new level of energy and engagement to the activity. Students were so excited to take turns using the microphone—when they asked questions, presented their arguments, or delivered their rebuttals, their voices carried confidently across the room.\r\nThe lively sound brought everyone into the moment, and even the quieter students found the courage to participate. The class was filled with laughter, focus, and genuine enthusiasm. It was one of those days where learning didn't just happen—it felt joyful.\r\nBecause of you, our classroom has become more interactive, inclusive, and fun. Your support helped create an environment where students feel empowered to speak, listen, collaborate, and express themselves.
