Your contribution is making a meaningful difference in the classroom.\r\n\r\nWith these resources, our students are developing stronger number sense through engaging, interactive activities that bring abstract concepts to life. They are also building essential problem-solving skills as they explore, experiment, and think critically in real-world contexts. Perhaps most importantly, we are already seeing a boost in their confidence—students are more willing to take risks, ask questions, and persist through challenges.\r\n\r\nYour investment is helping create an environment where learning is active, meaningful, and empowering. Thank you for believing in our students and supporting their growth in such a tangible way.","fullyFundedDate":1765211331723,"projectUrl":"project/igniting-intervention-innovation-through/9681156/","projectTitle":"Igniting Intervention Innovation Through STEM","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Alford","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp439489_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1688001876923","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/joni-alford"},{"teacherId":9820481,"projectId":10160045,"letterContent":"Thanks to your generosity, our classroom has been transformed through the \"Play, Practice, Progress: Speech Therapy in Action\" project. These new resources have allowed my students to engage in hands-on, meaningful learning experiences that truly bring speech and language therapy to life.\r\n\r\nWe are using the materials daily during therapy sessions to target communication goals through play-based activities. For example, during a recent session, students used the new interactive games and manipulatives to practice requesting, labeling, and commenting. When the students first saw the materials, their faces lit up with excitement. They were immediately drawn to the bright, engaging activities and couldn't wait to start exploring. Their enthusiasm has translated into increased participation, longer attention spans, and more meaningful communication attempts during our sessions.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we will continue to build on these skills by incorporating the materials into structured lessons focused on expanding utterances, improving social interactions, and generalizing communication skills across settings. These resources will also support small group activities, allowing students to practice turn-taking and peer interactions in a fun, supportive environment.\r\n\r\nYour support has made a lasting impact on my students' ability to communicate and connect with others.

What was once abstract and theoretical has become tangible and hands-on. Students are no longer just imagining solutions—they are designing, creating, testing, and refining real prototypes.\r\n\r\nThe 3D printer has strengthened critical thinking, problem-solving, and perseverance. Students engage more deeply in STEM lessons because they can see their ideas come to life layer by layer. Whether designing models to demonstrate scientific concepts, creating solutions to real-world challenges, or integrating math through measurement and scale, students are applying their learning in authentic and meaningful ways.\r\n\r\nBecause of this project, I am able to incorporate more project-based learning opportunities into my instruction. Students collaborate, revise their designs based on feedback, and take ownership of their learning. The excitement and sense of accomplishment when a design successfully prints is incredible—it builds confidence and encourages innovation.\r\n\r\nThis 3D printer is more than just a piece of technology; it is a tool that empowers students to think like engineers, creators, and problem-solvers.

Small group instruction is where targeted support, enrichment, and individualized learning take place. Without enough seating, students are often left feeling crowded or have to rotate in and out, which limits valuable instructional time.\r\n\r\nThis stool will ensure that every student has a comfortable and consistent place during small group lessons. Whether we are working on reading intervention, math enrichment, or collaborative discussions, students will be able to fully engage without distraction. Something as simple as adequate seating promotes focus, inclusion, and a sense of belonging.\r\n\r\nYour support will help create a more organized, welcoming learning space where every child can participate confidently and comfortably.

They enthusiastically participated in every step of making the play doh and getting to dress up like chefs in the bakery center... getting to roll out the dough with rolling pins, bake gingerbread cookies, and us molds to make the different shapes.

Because of your generosity, my students now have access to technology they can use in many meaningful and engaging ways.\r\n\r\nOur very first robotics project was a HUGE success. Students coded the robots to move across maps they created, practicing cardinal directions while also developing problem-solving and coding skills. It was incredible to watch their thinking as they used trial and error to program their robots to reach the desired locations. Making learning hands-on and tangible truly deepened their understanding and engagement.\r\n\r\nMy students were thrilled just to see the robots move, but their favorite part was creating a celebration dance after successfully coding a path around their maps. This technology made learning accessible and empowering for all of my students, regardless of their level of cognition.

The mesh zipper bags make it easy for students to safely transport their materials back and forth, empowering them to take ownership of their learning. The dry erase pockets and sturdy cardstock are already proving to be incredibly valuable—students love using them to practice blending, segmenting, and reading words while having fun at home with their families.\r\n\r\nThese resources help build confidence, independence, and excitement around reading.
