The glue, glue sticks, erasers, and clipboards have made a noticeable difference in how smoothly our class runs, especially during group projects, interactive notebooks, and review activities that require movement and collaboration.\r\n\r\nOne example of how we've used the materials is during a recent assignment where students created visual summaries of a lesson using diagrams and foldables. With clipboards and glue readily available, students were able to work comfortably around the room, and no one had to wait or borrow supplies. The erasers have been especially helpful during problem-solving tasks where students are encouraged to revise and rethink their answers.\r\n\r\nWhen the supplies arrived, the students were excited to see that they had what they needed without having to ask or go without. It's a small thing, but it made a big difference in helping them feel prepared and supported.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we'll continue using these materials in our upcoming classroom projects, and I'm confident they'll keep playing an important role in helping students stay engaged and organized.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping us create a more functional and student-ready learning space!","fullyFundedDate":1692020537591,"projectUrl":"project/sticking-together-essential-supplies-fo/7676242/","projectTitle":"Sticking Together: Essential Supplies for Bright Minds","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Dowdy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7140947_orig.jpg?crop=960,960,x0,y179&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1597534363761","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/dowdy"},{"teacherId":8102467,"projectId":9004717,"letterContent":"Your kindness has allowed us to work so much more efficiently in class.

Note cards fit perfectly in a camera bag, so we can now bring tips with use to photo shoots. \r\nAnd finally, thank you for the snacks!
