More students can use he supplies eliminating chaos in the room.\r\n\r\nBy having multiple sharpeners and supplies, my students are able to keep up with the demand to have writing materials when needed without disruption to the class. I can have several students doing their jobs to sharpen pencils and crayons at the end of the day instead of during class.","fullyFundedDate":1785764978929,"projectUrl":"project/get-us-to-the-point/10296839/","projectTitle":"Get us to the Point!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Carter","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp1043916_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1453926211425","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/megancarter"},{"teacherId":10595005,"projectId":10492884,"letterContent":"Thank you for donating the MP3 players and SD cards to our classroom!
