Because of you, my 3rd grade students now have giant Connect 4 games to enjoy during recess—and they have quickly become a favorite!\r\n\r\nThese games have transformed our recess time. I've watched students work together, take turns, cheer each other on, and solve problems as they plan their next move. The giant size makes the game exciting and accessible for everyone, and it has encouraged even my quieter students to jump in and participate. It's been wonderful to see friendships grow and teamwork develop through play.\r\n\r\nRecess is such an important part of our school day, and your support has given my students a positive, engaging way to relax, connect, and build social skills after working hard in the classroom. Your kindness has brought smiles, laughter, and meaningful interactions to our playground.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students and for helping create joyful learning experiences beyond the classroom walls.
