Your donations have made a meaningful difference in both our learning environment and student motivation. The candy and toys for our treasure box have become a powerful incentive for students to stay on track with their weekly i-Ready homework. Each week, students eagerly work hard knowing they have the opportunity to choose a special reward. One of my favorite moments was watching a student who had struggled with completing assignments proudly select a prize for the very first time—his smile said everything. Your kindness helped build his confidence and excitement for learning.\r\n\r\nThe games you provided, such as Uno, checkers, and Tapple, have also become a wonderful part of our classroom routine. We use these during brain breaks throughout the week. These moments give students a chance to reset, collaborate, and build important social and critical thinking skills. When the materials first arrived, the students were thrilled—they immediately asked when they could use the games and could not wait to explore them together. The bean bags have also transformed our classroom by giving students flexible seating options, allowing them to work more comfortably and stay focused during independent and small group activities.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, we will continue using these resources to support both academic growth and positive classroom culture. Students are becoming more responsible, motivated, and engaged learners. We will also incorporate the games into more structured learning centers to reinforce teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills. Your generosity has created a classroom environment where students feel supported, excited, and ready to learn each day. Thank you for investing in our students and making our classroom a place where they can thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1756473356019,"projectUrl":"project/building-a-cozy-reading-learning-corne/9453563/","projectTitle":"Building a Cozy Reading & Learning Corner!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Milnes","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp224443_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1540215315255","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/224443"},{"teacherId":7483729,"projectId":9303216,"letterContent":"I have No words to express my gratitude for funding this project!!!
