Because of your generosity, my students now have the tools they need to feel confident, capable, and successful in their learning every single day.\r\nOur dyslexia classroom serves students for 45 minutes a day, and every moment matters. The multisensory writing tools you provided have already made a powerful impact. Students are using the magic boards daily to practice spelling patterns and cursive writing, an essential component of dyslexia instruction. Being able to write, erase, and try again without fear has helped them take risks, build muscle memory, and grow their confidence.\r\nOne student, Cameron, shared, \"The boards are so fun. I love coming to dyslexia because I learn to read and have fun. Our classroom is beautiful, and I'm proud of it.\" His words perfectly capture the joy and confidence these materials have brought into our learning space.\r\nThe organization bins have been a game changer. They help students quickly access materials and stay organized, allowing us to maximize instructional time and reduce anxiety. For learners with dyslexia, structure and accessibility are essential and these supplies support both.\r\nOur new easels have created a dedicated cursive-writing station where the teacher models proper letter formation and students practice alongside. This visual and kinesthetic approach is critical for dyslexic learners and has already increased engagement and focus.\r\nWe are also using the Cricut to create customized labels, classroom signs, student showcases, and even t-shirts that build community and pride. Seeing their work displayed and celebrated helps our students feel valued and capable, something many of them have struggled with in the past.\r\nBecause of you, our classroom is not just better equipped, it is more supportive, more inclusive, and more empowering. You didn't just fund supplies; you helped erase fear and build confidence in students who need it most.\r\nWith heartfelt gratitude,\r\nSylvia Gomez Soriano\t\r\nFrank Macias Elementary","fullyFundedDate":1765832205495,"projectUrl":"project/erase-fear-build-confidence-tools-for/9935472/","projectTitle":"Erase Fear, Build Confidence: Tools for Our Dyslexia Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Gomez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6755446_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1698240499809","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6755446"},{"teacherId":3948926,"projectId":10046945,"letterContent":"Thank you very much for donating the materials for my classroom.
