Their excitement was palpable, and it motivated them to engage more actively in our lessons. One of the projects we just completed was making clocks with the words in Spanish for how to tell time. Students needed the glue and tape you provided to make this learning happen. \r\n\r\nAnother way your donation made a difference in my classroom was by making it possible to create a classroom calendar of everyones birthdays.
