I have around 40 students a day in my classroom and that means a lot of germs and mess at times. The HUGE supply of lysol wipes has certainly come in handy. We did a massive classroom clean in addition to our daily end of day routine. My students are responsible for wiping their desks, tables and sink/counter area each afternoon. When everybody has left I take the lysol spray and sanitize our room even more. It is so refreshing to know my room is clean and smells great as a bonus each morning that I walk in.

We were able to send home dozens of backpacks full of food for our winter break and still have a closet full of food! So many students were thankful to have snacks and a little bit extra in their bellies. I was able to purchase breakfast items, instant or quick meals, microwavable meals for students and so much more! I selected these items because our students have working families and need options that could be made at some safely in a microwave or just by pouring milk in a bowl for cereal.

Not only are we supporting our families, but we are sending a barrel of goods to the Jamaican relief organization. So many families will have relief because of you! I will be supporting my school this week by creating food bags to go home or be picked up by our students. We have canned goods, pasta, potatoes, canned fruits and so much more.

While the school year was already in progress, these materials did not go to waste. We always have students coming and going, and I like to provide my students with fresh materials whenever needed. We have used so many markers, journals and folders it's truly wild and takes a village. Our folders are used for centers and daily morning work. Our notebooks have become math journals for our notes and are used everyday and checked by myself for accountability measures. A classroom can function on the basics, but these materials allow for us to go above and beyond. All students are included and have the materials needed to grow in their math and science journey with me this school year because of donors like you.","fullyFundedDate":1760799286852,"projectUrl":"project/back-to-school-essentials/9443280/","projectTitle":"Back to School Essentials","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ernest","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5069153_orig.jpg?crop=1104,1104,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1752359922806","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-ernest"},{"teacherId":5069153,"projectId":9459954,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for providing these essential supplies to my classroom. I promote a lot of responsibility in my classroom through jobs. It is my students responsibilities to clean the classroom daily because if they make the mess they clean it. We make sure to wipe the desks, tables and sink area every afternoon. This ensures a clean room, less germs and the next day is a fresh start. In addition, my students sweep, vacuum and take out the trash. Having so many students in and out daily requires cleanliness, so I make sure to spray at least 2x week. We will be doing a huge classroom clean before winter break, so our large tub of wipes will come in handy!

The canned goods are the start of a schoolwide pantry that will hopefully begin to thrive. As part of the school food drive, the class with the most donations won extra recess time. We won with a land-slide and got to spend 35 extra minutes outside!

The smiles and joy is clear in the photos that will be submitted with this letter. In north east Florida it gets very cold and these kids need to be warm.

Our classroom is filled with excitement and joy thanks to your support. The microwave has been a wonderful addition as we now make special snacks and rewards that bring smiles to every face in our 2nd-grade class. The cinnamon atomic balls have quickly become a favorite treat for students who work hard and show kindness. Your kindness has made our reward system something the children truly look forward to every day.\r\n\r\n The dry erase markers have also made a huge difference in our learning. During our UFLI phonics lessons, the students love coming up to the whiteboard to solve problems, sound out words, and show their understanding. We have even created colorful pictures that connect with our lessons, turning learning into a creative and hands-on experience. It is wonderful to see how engaged and confident the students have become.\r\n\r\n We are also incredibly grateful for the HP Think Tank color printer. It has opened up so many possibilities, from printing certificates of achievement to fun AI-designed stories and classroom rewards. The bright, colorful materials make our classroom more inviting and help students feel proud of their accomplishments. Thank you for helping us create such a positive, dynamic, and rewarding learning environment.

The bright colors of the flower beds and garden decorations will bring so much joy to our campus and students. I always incorporate this event as part of a science unit for plants and animals.
