Although it took a while to figure out how it works my students really got a kick out of making these 3-D stickers and it serves as great motivation for them to continue following directions.\r\nIt has encouraged them to participate more in class, and they are more likely to come up to the Promethean board and show how they arrived at their answers.\r\nIt just brings them so much excitement and motivation for everything that we do. They're more encouraged to do their writing and are even learning how to blend letters together and starting to read two and three syllable words.

They are taking greater ownership of their learning, using writing supplies to organize their thoughts, illustrate their ideas, and practice essential language skills. These resources have especially supported students who were previously hesitant writers, helping them build confidence and develop their voices.\r\n\r\nBecause of this project, my classroom has become a space where all students feel supported and inspired to communicate. Their growth in writing, vocabulary, and self-expression is evident every day, and it would not have been possible without the generosity of our donors.","fullyFundedDate":1771000972090,"projectUrl":"project/little-writers-big-voices-writing-tool/10066747/","projectTitle":"Little Writers, Big Voices: Writing Tools for Bilingual First Graders","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Quiles","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3091983_orig.png?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1720476873677","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3091983"},{"teacherId":5389952,"projectId":10150211,"letterContent":"This project builds on hands-on experience already underway with an embroidery machine and creative tools.

Many of my students benefit from having access to digital texts, audio supports, and interactive platforms that allow them to practice reading skills in both Spanish and English. Technology helps me meet students where they are by providing immediate feedback, scaffolding, and opportunities to revisit skills at their own pace. It also allows students to collaborate, respond to texts in creative ways, and build confidence as readers and thinkers.\r\n\r\nWhat has been most exciting for students is how interactive and personalized the learning experience has become. They love being able to listen to stories while following along, record their thinking, and use tools that make learning feel more like exploration than work. The ability to see their progress in real time has also been very motivating—they take pride in tracking their growth and setting goals for themselves.\r\n\r\nI've noticed that some of my more hesitant or struggling readers have especially connected with this new technology. For example, students who may feel less confident reading aloud in front of peers are much more willing to engage when they can use audio features or practice independently first. Additionally, my bilingual students benefit greatly from tools that support vocabulary development and comprehension in both languages. These students are participating more, taking risks, and showing growth that might not have been as visible without these supports.\r\n\r\nOverall, this technology is helping create a more inclusive, engaging, and student-centered classroom where every learner has access to the tools they need to succeed.","fullyFundedDate":1768526183335,"projectUrl":"project/learning-that-lasts/10017776/","projectTitle":"Learning That Lasts","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Dominguez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9286861_orig.jpg?crop=488,488,x0,y37&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746421250300","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9286861"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_17852","usesÐǿմ«Ã½":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":429,"numTeachers":31,"percentFrplEligible":84,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":6,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":90,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"13.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":65.2,"schoolId":17852,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about San Jacinto Elementary School on @Ðǿմ«Ã½:","schoolName":"San Jacinto Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/dallas-independent-school-district/san-jacinto-elementary-school/17852"}
