As educators, we are constantly seeking ways to improve student focus, engagement, and academic performance. Having colored pencils, highlighters, and zipper pouches have made a lot of our annotating and organizing so much easier while also being impactful.\r\n\r\nIn addition to improving organization, the use of color added an element of fun and personal expression. This sense of ownership contributed to greater engagement and responsibility. Middle school can be difficult, and many studetnts struggle with both organization and personal expression, so seeing both of these areas positively impacted has been wonderful to see.","fullyFundedDate":1752084846219,"projectUrl":"project/colorful-organization-for-middle-school/9451239/","projectTitle":"Colorful Organization for Middle School","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lazarz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-lazarz"},{"teacherId":6766911,"projectId":9139004,"letterContent":"Receiving grant funding to purchase chapter books for my classroom has been an incredible gift—for both my students and myself as an educator.
