Your support has made a tremendous difference in the daily learning environment, and I want to take a moment to share just how meaningful your contributions have been—for both me and my students. \r\nSince introducing the fidgets into the classroom, I have noticed improvements in focus and overall engagement. These tools have helped create a calmer and more structured learning space where students can concentrate for longer periods of time without as many distractions or interruptions.\r\nThe candy incentives, as well, have had an unexpectedly powerful impact on student motivation. What might seem like a small treat has become a meaningful reward that encourages participation, teamwork, and perseverance. During group projects, review games, and collaborative activities, students who once hesitated to join in are now actively contributing and engaging with their classmates.","fullyFundedDate":1762266397527,"projectUrl":"project/focus-and-fun-fidgets-and-treats-for-le/9805551/","projectTitle":"Focus and Fun: Fidgets and Treats for Learning Success!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Smith","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9655219_orig.jpg?crop=240,240,x0,y40&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1731078123579","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9655219"},{"teacherId":403320,"projectId":9610766,"letterContent":"It has been nearly a semester since the MO law that banned all student cell phone use during the school day has gone into effect.
