Students don't make a big fuss about it, but they appreciate being able to grab what they need without having to ask. Whether it's a mask before heading back to class, a pad for an older student, or a bandaid after recess, the cart helps them take care of themselves and return to learning right away.\r\n\r\nOne boy with chronically dry lips has already stopped by several times for chapstick, and it's been reassuring to see him find relief without waiting for me to be free. These small moments add up: the cart allows students to meet their needs with dignity, reduces interruptions, and keeps them in class instead of waiting in the clinic.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, our students now have consistent access to everyday essentials that support their health and confidence. The next step is continuing to integrate the cart into our daily routines, making sure students know it's always available as a quiet, reliable support whenever they need it.","fullyFundedDate":1758229018621,"projectUrl":"project/clinic-self-serve-station-supporting-he/9671933/","projectTitle":"Clinic Self-Serve Station: Supporting Health and Independence","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Naisha","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7804745_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1756757643964","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7804745"},{"teacherId":526072,"projectId":9116883,"letterContent":"Since receiving new headphones and white boards through your most generous donations, my students have had the opportunity to draw, write and listen with our new phonemic awareness program. They are enjoying the independence of writing sounds that they are hearing and words that they are learning. For me, it has been such a relief to not have to duct tape my old white boards and package tape my headphones back together. These new tools mean that everyone has access to the tools that they need and in some cases the tools that they want to all learn together.

These supplies have been instrumental in creating a welcoming and engaging science classroom for 450 students.\r\n\r\nBecause I am a specialist, I do not have students bringing in school supplies like most classroom teachers do. The presharpened pencils have saved me hours of time and given students access to nice pencils with erasers right when they need them. \r\n\r\nWith cold and flu season beginning simultaneously with the start of the school year, the tissues and cleaning wipes have been a life saver! \r\n\r\nOne of the most loved items is the Wild Kratts game. Students are eager to play, so they are on their best behavior to make time to engage with the game. Additionally, the light up globe with constellations has been a hit at all grade levels, but has really supported the fifth graders who are currently learning about space and constellations. \r\n\r\nYour support has made a difference and I can't thank you enough.","fullyFundedDate":1754451601353,"projectUrl":"project/supporting-students-in-science/9448046/","projectTitle":"Supporting Students in Science","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dupré","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6186501_orig.jpg?crop=2489,2489,x302,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1590535411880","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-dupre"},{"teacherId":6186501,"projectId":9407858,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous donation and for supporting my classroom. We are about one month in to school and I can tell you that the students are always eager to have some reading time, thanks to you! I am blessed to have many science related books for students of all ages to enjoy.\r\n\r\nOne of the most popular series has been the Max Axiom books, which are graphic novels about different science subjects. Graphic novels are popular at all grade levels, and easy to access thanks to the many pictures, so students of various reading levels can still learn something from them. \r\n\r\nAnother popular book is Ada Magnifica, Cientifica - the Spanish version of Ada Twist, Scientist. I have seen students eyes light up when they have found science books in Spanish, giving them an engaging text that they can access in their home language.\r\n\r\nWe are so appreciative of your support!","fullyFundedDate":1751602395921,"projectUrl":"project/culturally-responsive-library/9407858/","projectTitle":"Culturally Responsive Library","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dupré","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6186501_orig.jpg?crop=2489,2489,x302,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1590535411880","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-dupre"},{"teacherId":6186501,"projectId":9356164,"letterContent":"I am so grateful for your generous donation to my classroom. Becoming the science teacher after nine years as a classroom teacher was an exciting but daunting shift for me. I wanted to be sure that students saw this room as their science class and not just another general education classroom. Thanks to your support, that rings true today.\r\n\r\nOne of my favorite items is the Make Every Day Earth Day tapestry. It takes up a big space on my wall and is something the students notice every time they are in the classroom, taking ownership of helping to keep the earth a beautiful place to live.\r\n\r\nThe stickers and microscopes have been especially helpful in managing student behavior. With 20 classes and 450 students, finding ways to help students stay focused requires different tricks than a traditional classroom teacher typically uses. I use stickers to reward the most focused table after each class, which has helped even the most distractible students stay on task. The microscopes have been promised as a reward for classes who consistently show respectful behavior, and they sure are motivating!\r\n\r\nYour support truly makes a difference in my classroom.

We are about a month in to school and the new science classroom, and students are reporting to teachers and other staff members that they are loving it! Your support has made my room feel more like a science classroom and less like their general education class. \r\n\r\nThe color changing fairy lights have been very popular! I change the color of the lights depending on the grade level to help student (any myself!) remember which color coded vocabulary and learning targets are for their grade level. The dry erase markers are also helping us to stay organized based on grade level color.\r\n\r\nSome surprising favorites have been the Smokey the Bear poster, especially popular with Kindergarteners, and the small space air fresheners! Many students have commented that they love that science always smells so good!\r\n\r\nSmall items like these make a difference to students and staff alike.

We have handheld microscopes ready to go on day one! Students will be able to closely examine whatever they can find in the classroom. My own children have tried these out and had a blast discovering all different types of materials and textures, leading them to questioning and making hypotheses with no prompting from me! \r\n\r\nThe teachers pay teachers gift card has given me the ability to purchase STEM lessons for every grade level. These will be perfect for the first few weeks of school, and will provide an easy sub plan for me to leave, saving me hours of lesson planning. \r\n\r\nMy favorite part of this package was the scientist posters. I have hung these up above the whiteboard where students will see them every day. I hope that each student will see themselves reflected in at least one of these scientists, or be inspired by one of the quotes provided. I will leave you with a quote from Albert Einstein that resonates with me. \"The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge, but imagination.\"","fullyFundedDate":1746508750393,"projectUrl":"project/supporting-students-in-science/9256907/","projectTitle":"Supporting Students in Science","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dupré","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6186501_orig.jpg?crop=2489,2489,x302,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1590535411880","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-dupre"},{"teacherId":6186501,"projectId":8890919,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting our classroom in math this year.

Having multiple options of how to visualize and understand addition and subtraction has been a game changer for many of our students.\r\n\r\nThe Making Change board game has been a fun and engaging challenge for our students who have mastered their addition and subtraction facts.\r\n\r\nFinally, the magnets are a favorite for many during choice time. They love exploring what is magnetic and how far they can pull things with different magnets.\r\n\r\nYour support truly makes a difference in our classroom.

The 'creative' one is one of the favorites!\r\n\r\nFinally, the books have been a great resource for many students and have been shared with other classes as well.

After we have done the \"work\" with our magazine, students LOVE to play the game. Even my student who uses an iPad to communicate is able to answer questions and give his feedback.

Many of my books are donated by families or acquired at thrift stores, and Spanish books are generally a lot harder to find, unless you have the funds to buy them new. Our rather meager selection of Spanish books is so rich and full now, with lots of high interest options, both fiction and nonfiction, at a variety of reading levels. \r\n\r\nThis goes such a long ways toward helping make our classroom library more inclusive of students whose first language is Spanish! It is an amazing resource for students who are more confident and capable at reading in Spanish, so that they can balance the more simple, lower level texts that they're learning to read in English with books that are more exciting and at their grade level in their home language. It's also a really rich opportunity for students whose families might speak Spanish, although the children may not have much experience with reading in Spanish.
