I've been sick and lost my voice, so they are mostly reading independently, and they are quiet and focused on the text; I haven't had to redirect at all. It's a difficult topic to teach and discuss, but it's important and I know students will remember what they read. I know they are also going to be outraged when they find out Emmett's killers failed to be convicted twice. \r\n\r\nThank you so much for helping them learn about this tragic event that inspired people like Rosa Parks.

The games you helped provide have been used in more ways and by more people than I ever imagined.\r\n\r\nMy students have absolutely loved having access to these new games. They use them at lunch, when they finish class projects early, and even while hanging out in my classroom before events, like the band concert last week. The room fills with laughter, strategy, teamwork, and genuine connection. It has been wonderful to watch students who might not normally interact learn to communicate, collaborate, and enjoy time together.\r\n\r\nThe impact has also reached beyond my classroom. Our English Language Development (ELD) teacher next door has been borrowing games that require strong communication skills for her Fun Friday activities, and her students have been just as enthusiastic. Even our Librarian joined in on the excitement. She borrowed all of my Uno cards to host a school-wide Uno tournament, which quickly became a huge hit. The kids still can't stop talking about it!\r\n\r\nYour support has done so much more than simply provide games. It has fostered community, communication, and joy throughout our campus.

What may seem like a simple tool has made an enormous difference in the daily rhythm of our classroom. These new rolling pins have transformed the way we work—students no longer have to wait their turn, share one or two worn-out rollers, or lose momentum in the middle of their creative process. Instead, they are able to dive right in, stay engaged, and fully experience the joy of hands-on artmaking.\r\n\r\nWe have already put the rolling pins to excellent use across a wide variety of ceramic projects. Students rolled out beautifully smooth slabs for their Ceramic Dragon Eyes, created even coils for their Giant Coil Vases, and built sturdy foundation pieces for their Slab Cups. They especially loved using the rollers to create precise, consistent surfaces for our Themed Tic-Tac-Toe Boards, which allowed them to focus on craftsmanship and creativity instead of waiting in line for materials. It has been amazing to watch them work with more confidence and independence simply because they have the tools they need.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has had a direct and immediate impact on the quality of our learning environment. You've helped create a more efficient, inclusive, and joyful studio where every student can participate fully. The rolling pins are not only helping us complete projects more smoothly. They are helping students feel empowered, valued, and excited about their work.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in our classroom and in the power of the arts.
