This year, my class has been moved into an old portable classroom. Unfortunately, this classroom has a lot of issues including, but not limited to, a broken PA system, no window blinds, and cracked and moldy ceiling tiles. With this, I have spent a lot of time thinking about ways I can protect my students in the event of an emergency.\r\n\r\nYour donation has provided us with tools to help keep us safe. I have been able to properly cover the windows, secure the desks together, attach heavy items to walls, and more. I truly am so grateful for all of your donations that have gone to help make our classroom a safer environment.","fullyFundedDate":1763596924427,"projectUrl":"project/prioritizing-student-safety/9652247/","projectTitle":"Prioritizing Student Safety","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cabelli","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8487499"},{"teacherId":9971485,"projectId":9185693,"letterContent":"When my students first saw the new board games, colorful dice, and collaboration supplies, the classroom filled with excitement and curiosity. They couldn't wait to explore! The games and dice have quickly become a favorite during our teamwork blocks, and have completely transformed our math time. What used to be routine practice now feels like a fun challenge, as students use the dice for fact fluency games, probability investigations, and small group math centers.\r\n\r\nThese tools have brought new energy into our classroom. Students are learning to take turns, communicate clearly, and solve problems together, whether they're strategizing in a board game or using dice to roll and solve math equations. We're now planning to integrate these materials into academic review sessions across multiple subjects, blending social-emotional learning with core content. Thanks to your support, our classroom is more interactive, student-centered, and joyful every day!","fullyFundedDate":1746786155948,"projectUrl":"project/game-on-boosting-social-skills-through/9185693/","projectTitle":"Game On: Boosting Social Skills Through Fun!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Jones","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9971485_orig.jpg?crop=799,799,x97,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742585988675","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-jones-grade5"},{"teacherId":8487499,"projectId":9853746,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating to our classroom. One thing I am constantly striving for is providing the tools necessary to meet the needs of all of my students.

The supplies you have donated to our classroom will all go towards further supporting all of my students' needs.\r\n\r\nThe students are very excited about all of the technology your donations have contributed to our classroom. The donation of a screen with a transmitter will allow for me to cast lessons and assignments so that all students will be able to learn. \r\n\r\nTechnology is such a pillar of education and the world, and I cannot express to you how grateful I am for your donation.

Encouraging literacy in kids these days, with social media and constant screen stimulation, can be really difficult. As a result of this, literacy has been an uphill battle in our schools for the past few years. That is why getting these books that inspire my kids to read has made such an impact on my students' lives.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom we have been using these books in a few different ways. In addition to the students having access to the books to read in school or take home, I have also been selecting individual books and reading them aloud in the classroom to inspire students to pursue books in a similar topic or series. These read-alouds have been incredibly helpful in students regulating themselves after recess and lunch. Additionally, my kids genuinely enjoy being read to.\r\n\r\nThank you so much for your donation to my classroom.

The books of collage materials provide so many incredible options for students to cut out in order to make ther landscapes. Additionally, for students who don't feel confident in their drawing/artistic skills, the bird houses are going to make an awesome impact in encouraging them to recognize that art can be as simple as putting color on something. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for supporting art in our classroom.
